Seven Fun and Family-Friendly Ideas for a Summer of STEM
Posted by STEM Next Opportunity Fund on July 5, 2022
Summer is here. So is the search for ideas to support summer learning. With less structure and more time for self-directed play, summer is an ideal time to encourage children’s interests, confidence, and creativity. STEM Next Opportunity Fund believes passionately in the power of STEM to close the opportunity gap and wants every child to have a summer experience with hands-on STEM learning that is fun, engaging, and meaningful to their lives.
Here are seven ideas to bring STEM fun into summertime. We hope that they create the “STEM spark” that brings joy and discovery to families.
