Wee Engineer’s® fun, engaging activities capture young childrens’ natural curiosity, while strengthening problem solving and critical thinking skills, starting at age 3. Practicing social, emotional, fine motor, cognitive, and language skills prepares them for a strong start in school.
Practice problem solving with a simplified, PreK appropriate engineering design process.
Create an environment where all students can discover their inner engineer.
Get hands-on and lead fun, engaging, project-based STEM experiences.
Inspire curiosity with EiE programs that get preK students thinking—and acting—like engineers. Hands-on challenges empower preschoolers to see themselves as problem-solvers as they learn that there are multiple ways to solve a problem.
The program includes four engineering challenges that open up young learners’ minds to the world of engineering by encouraging them to use familiar materials to solve problems by creating: noisemakers, fans, wrecking balls, and rafts.
The Wee Engineer curriculum provides everything you need to engage your youngest learners in STEM.
Educators Guide provides step-by-step instructions for teachers to lead engineering challenges, with materials preparation information, discussion prompts, educator tips, family resources and more.
Digital Educator Guide provides easy access to an online version of the unit. Convenient, online access to the Guide and resources makes it easy to seamlessly project to the class, deliver STEM learning virtually, and prep for lessons any time, anywhere.
The Materials Kit includes all the supplies needed for 20 children to complete the engineering activities in this guide and a puppet to help educators set the context for each activity.
“This program is excellent for this age. My students are only 4 years old and I was amazed by the ideas they would come up with. I am completely fascinated with the idea of letting them know that we are all engineers.”
Yesenia Torres, PreK Teacher, Lewisville, TX
Our teachers can hit science standards, engineering standards while developing critical thinking and 21st century skills that your students can be practicing...It’s almost a 2-for-1.

“EiE has been everything I've hoped for and more, and is the foundation upon which I have re-imagined my entire classroom. The EiE units help me because they are so comprehensive. Everything I need is included. And yet, I have the creative license to modify the lessons as I see fit, to accommodate my program's unique needs.”
