Abstract

This article explores the methodology for activating cognitive activity of preparatory group children based on the STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, mathematics) approach. The article is compiled on the basis of the IMRAD requirement, which covers both theoretical and practical aspects. The purpose of the study is to determine the methodology for the development of creative thinking, independent research and problem – solving skills of children using Steam activity. The study was conducted in the 2024-2025 academic year with the participation of 6 children aged 60-5 years. The results showed that the STEAM approach is effective in activating cognitive activity in children, significantly enhancing creative thinking, imagination, and problem-solving skills.
