One of my classmates from INSEAD recently launched a Kickstarter campaign for Cannybots, toy robots designed to teach kids how to program and tinker in a playful way.

I'm really excited for Cannybots to make their way to schools and students' homes to inspire young kids to to be creative while building and playing with something. By making programming and tinkering fun, kids will develop their analytical capabilities without even realizing it, and maybe even be inspired to study and pursue careers in STEM!

As a child, I loved to play with Legos and puzzles, and I think those early days of building and solving things led me to be interested in engineering.  Back then, all of the Legos and other building toys were "boy oriented" so it's very valuable that Cannybots is unisex and appealing to all kids. 

To see how Cannybots work and to contribute to their campaign, check out the Kickstarter page!

Today's students are tomorrow's pioneers. Occupations in STEM-related professions are probably the quickest developing and best paid of the 21st century, and they frequently have the best potential for work development. The most ideal approach to guarantee future achievement and life span is to ensure that the students are well versed in these subjects. Building a strong STEM Foundation through a balanced educational plan is the most ideal approach to guarantee that understudies are presented to math, science, and innovation all through their instructive profession. The craze for STEM Learning has now significantly increased in young students. The universities are coming up with various <a href="https://www.liysf.org.uk/liysf/liysf-2021">STEM Learning Programs</a> in collaboration with other institutions & researchers. The STEM Learning Ecosystems have a vast potential to teach the young students in masses. Every year students are applying for these programs in a big number because of the real-time practice and to represent their talents.
