What age should STREAM activities be geared towards?
Plan to prepare and lead a STREAM activity geared towards the Pre-K-8th grade community. We recommend that you think about using vocabulary and concepts easily understood by kids and their parents. The best activities are those that can be easily duplicated with items that are easily accessible by families, can be duplicated using recycled materials or items easily found at home. Science is not magic--explain the science behind the fun!
Booth Engagement
You can expect 300 kids and their families to visit your booth. You can expect to spend 10-15 minutes per activity, and then encourage them to move to another booth.
