After so many of you enjoyed the December 2020 STEAM calendar, I created a January 2021 STEAM Calendar. This calendar features a number of snow-themed STEAM activities. The calendar also contains activities and experiments that focus on January holidays. Some of the STEAM activities are from right here on JDaniel4’s Mom. Others come from some of my favorite websites and blogs. While the activities on the calendar appear on a specific day, you can explore them on any day you would like to.

Books That Celebrate January Holidays
Getting the January STEAM Activity Calendar
The January STEAM Activities Calendar 2021 is a PDF. Once you have downloaded the calendar, you will need a PDF reader to open it. (I use the application Acrobat Reader.)
Exploring the January STEAM Activity Calendar
You will be able to access the directions needed to explore each activity when you click on each day’s hyperlink. After you get to each activity’s blog post, you will find a supply list and the step by step activity directions. Some of the activities offer free printables or recording sheets. You can use what they have for you to download or create your own versions of the activities if you like. Remember the idea was to inspire you to explore STEAM activities with your children. You know what they can handle and how they like to explore concepts and activities.
A variety of different types of STEAM activities have been included on the calendar. You may find that some are more appropriate for older children while others are great for children of all ages. I think that some of them could be done with a partner or parent. However some of you may have children that want to complete them on their own.
More STEAM Activities
STEAM activities are so much fun. They are a great way for children explore and learn so many math, science, engineering, art and technology concepts. After exploring the activities on the calendar, I hope you will explore the activities below.
