To enhance the learning experience, check out the Activity Library with “Go Guides” to get you started on a build, with labs and challenges tied to the Next Generation Science Standards to connect learning to the fun.

Youth will learn science and engineering concepts through experimentation, grow their understanding and evolve projects through the design & engineering process. The Maker Space Cart provides ample opportunities for amazing true STEM projects for as little as a few dollars a kit (average project cost: $1.37 – cost is based on students working in groups of 2-3 and taking projects home.)
