Creative STEM Residency- Theme: Young Makers, Doctors, Chefs, Astronauts, and ...


  • The GIANT Room 550 West 28th Street New York, NY, 10001 United States (map)

DESCRIPTION: Today we’ll be a …. chef, baker, astronaut, doctor, zookeeper, dentist, artist, paleontologist, farmer, puppeteer, or maybe even a marine scientist! Participants wear a different hat every week, make, and play together. Not only will they learn craft and making techniques to set up their own cafe, bakery, doctor’s office, spaceship, or a field in the search of dinosaur bones, but they will also explore early math, science, literacy, and social sciences, AND they will engage in joyful role play in every workshop. We’ll send you a box of carefully designed and curated set of arts and crafts materials, wooden models, and tools developmentally appropriate for younger kids.

Recommended for ages 3- 5 (Kids younger than 5 year old needs to attend with a caregiver)
