STEM Gift Boxes & Stories for 5-10 Year Olds
School budgets have been slashed and kids aren’t taught STEM classes early enough. We focus on STEM specifically for 5-10 year olds because science proves that's when they can learn the most but are taught the least. Children with Dyslexia will also benefit from our holistic approach to learning.
Oh and kids ❤️ receiving and completing our packages!
