Raise your hand if you've encountered the term STEM. It is the acronym that stands for:
SCIENCE
TECHNOLOGY
ENGINEERING
MATHEMATICS
Chances are if you have a child in school than you already know what I'm talking about.
As a Preschool teacher and mom to a three year old, I am constantly aware of the activities I share and make sure to include aspects of STEM learning whenever possible.
But why is STEM important? As explained here
And this is where Snapology comes in! It provides a place to go to engage in STEM learning and caters to ages 1 to 18! By incorporating the use of fun building blocks (think LEGO!) and being hands-on, it helps set the stage for life long learners.
"Snapology provides interactive, STEM / STEAM programs for children featuring technology and popular building toys such as LEGO® bricks and K’Nex®. Kids have so much fun in our programs, that they don’t realize just how much they are learning."
Snapology is a budding new program and unfortunately there are no locations close to us but there are franchise opportunities available, any takers? :)
This blog has a great roundup of STEM activities for toddlers and preschoolers. For more information about STEM visit here.
This post is a partnership with Nakturnal.
This place looks awesome! I just checked out their locations and there's one a little under an hour for me! For my three STEM-obsessed little builders, they would love this! Thanks so much for sharing!
ReplyDeleteSnapology is so fun. And even better that they come to you if you'd like!
