Team up with your child to build cool projects at STEM Family Fun!
STEM Family Fun (SFF) is a 2Gen STEM group focused on project-based STEM challenges. Each child attends with an adult teammate, i.e. parent, grandparent, mentor, older sibling, etc. This group is for kids in grades 3-6. Teams in STEM Family Fun learn cardboard engineering, coding, and robotics.
SFF for 26 school year starts January 14. Plans for this year include robo-soccer, a robotic hand, and a spring kite building project. You can get more information and see photos from last year’s group on our STEM Family Fun page.
Registration is open now for the 3nd quarter which runs 1/14-2/25/26 This semester, the STEM teams will build a robotic arm and a hand-built kite. Weekly meetings are 90 minutes long and include a short Bible lesson.
Each child/adult team will need the following for the fall semester:
1. Paid registration or scholarship. To keep STEM Family Fun accessible, we use a Pay What You Want model. Each 6-week quarter costs about $50 per student in materials. We ask families to contribute at least $20 per quarter to help cover these costs.
2. Commit to regular attendance for at least one quarter. Our projects usually take several weeks to complete.
3. The ability to set up a free web account for Scratch.
