If you are looking for an easy way to introduce children to the fun of STEAM and STEM then you’re going to love this free STEM choice board. Choice boards are a great way to give children options and let them learn based on their interests.
I am sharing this STEAM choice board for free as a simple way parents and educators can bring STEM into their classroom or home.
STEAM learning includes a mix of as many science, technology, engineering, art and math activities as possible. These hands-on activities and challenges are a great way for children to build these subject skills.
Although STEM activities often don’t include art, for this choice board it is part of it to give children even more choice. Often the art projects mix in some of the other subjects to add even more value to the activity.

STEAM Choice Board
The choice boards are available at the bottom of this post, for free. You can download and print today. The choice boards are available in color and black and white to save on printing.
Choice boards are a great way to get kids excited about learning. When I originally created the boards, each day I had my children choose one activity from the board that interested them. Each day we chose something new and different.
The boards are a great way to spark an interest in STEM because children get choice. They get to choose what they want to learn about and they get to guide their learning.
Choice boards are also a great option to send home with children over a break, like summer holidays. The board gives families some options for fun, hands-on learning opportunities to do at home.
The activities range from science experiments and math to ideas that include technology and engineering.
Many of the activities on the choice board use simple materials that can easily be found around the house or school. Keep it simple!
The board can be used by children of all ages. Many of the activities can be made more challenging for older children or simplified for young kids.
If your children show an interest in the hands-on building challenges, make sure to create a STEM learning box for them. With just 15 common, household materials you can do 50 STEM activities with this printable STEM resource.
