For the bulk of 2020 and 2021, learning—and STEAM lessons—happened largely online and, though many children are digital natives, navigating this era of education created plenty of new and unique challenges. Now, as we strive to ensure hands-on STEAM experiences are always accessible, kids can code almost anywhere with these tools, which is key for the summer.
Perfect for some laid-back summer STEAM with plenty of opportunities for students to keep their key skills sharp, there are a variety of new kits from each company on our store.

It can be hard to convince teachers (let alone students) to use some of their summer vacation to improve their academic skills. This is, of course, understandable since they spend the rest of the year doing just that. Making summer learning fun, however, is a fairly reasonable compromise so that both educators and their students aren’t wasting time.
As teachers, however, we know you’re always thinking about what you can do to improve your classrooms and offer your students a more exciting and relevant learning experience in the fall. Naturally, our first suggestion is to add new EdTech and STEAM tools. But, we know that it’s tough for many teachers to work these kinds of things in.
Ah, the myth of having summers off. Those outside the teaching profession tend to become filled with jealousy every year about this time because they’re stuck at work and teachers are stuck…doing absolutely nothing. Or so that’s what they think. The fact is that, especially today, teachers cannot afford to take summers completely off.
Since most kids think of the summertime as a chance to get away from learning, school and pretty much all academic-related activities, it’s sometimes tough to make sure that the months before school starts back up are meaningful. Sure, teachers can assign summer reading or projects, but there’s no way to be certain that students will really engage.
Kids need project-based stimulation during the hot summer months to ensure that they do not slip into a beach-and-pool kind of lull. While it’s not essential that it’s rigorous and demanding, as it’s okay for kids to get a bit of a break, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with keeping them fresh until they start back to school in September.
