Outdoor STEAM Activities For Your School Playground
STEAM is a forward-thinking, integrated approach to learning that uses Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts and Mathematics to guide children’s questioning, critical thinking and dialogue.
The idea is that children will learn how to take thoughtful risks, engage enthusiastically in experimental learning, work well with others and work through creative processes. It’s all about encouraging the innovators, educators, leaders and learners of the future!

STEAM is in the essence of much of what we do here at Pentagon. We have created a huge range of outdoor educational play and learning products for schools and nurseries that are absolutely ideal for, and go hand in hand with, STEAM learning.
We promote positive outdoor learning and play experiences, hands-on kinaesthetic learning, creative problem solving, investigation and discovery, experimentation and yes, getting a bit messy and generally having a lot of fun in the process!
