About the Event

Dive into hands-on learning with two exciting projects! Registration required.


What’s Included:

  1. "I Have a Dream" STEM Challenge:

    For Martin Luther King Jr. Day, children will construct a stable structure to represent the podium from which Dr. King delivered his iconic "I Have a Dream" speech. As they work, children will learn about the significance of the speech and reflect on the power words and dreams have in shaping a better future.

  2. "Popcorn Day" Experiment:

    In celebration of "Popcorn Day," children will engage in a fun chemistry experiment by mixing different ingredients to make popcorn "dance" in a jar. This hands-on activity introduces basic principles of chemistry, such as reactions and gas production, while giving kids an exciting and visual way to learn about science.
