STEM program for kids
ACK Little Explorers STEM program for kids gives children the opportunity to learn through hands-on building, science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Through exciting projects, LEGO® challenges, experiments, robotics and creative problem-solving, children learn by doing—not simply by listening.
STEM Learning Through Hands-On Exploration
At ACK Little Explorers, STEM becomes an experience children can see, touch, build and understand. Our activities are designed to encourage curiosity while introducing age-appropriate concepts in science, technology, engineering and mathematics.
LEGO® Engineering
Children use LEGO® and other building materials to design structures, machines and creative inventions while exploring balance, movement, forces, shapes and engineering concepts.
Science & Discovery
Young explorers investigate how the world works through fun, hands-on experiments and challenges. Activities can include motion, gravity, magnets, structures, energy, nature and simple scientific investigations.
