Welcome to our Nifty STEAM Activities
Our free-to-download online repository of STEAM-based Primary and Secondary School educational activities from Niftylift.
What is STEAM?
STEAM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Maths and we're passionate about it because without STEAM our engineers wouldn’t have the necessary skills and knowledge to design, develop and manufacture the market-leading products that we sell around the world!

All Niftylift STEAM activities within this section are free-to-download but subject to Niftylift copyright. For more information please contact marketing@niftylift.com.
