Early childhood educators have always recognized how building with blocks (and similar hands-on activities) help children develop motor skills while at the same time exercising their creativity. But these activities can also be framed as authentic engineering.

Engineering is Elementary is creating an engineering design process for the preschool classroom. Read more about EiE’s framework for preschool engineering here.
