About this activity

STEM Explorers Club

Now you're playing with science!

Are you a curious builder who loves figuring out how things work? Do you want to design, test, and rebuild your way through hands-on challenges? Are you excited by ambitious projects, like towers, catapults, and rockets you engineer yourself?

Students explore science, technology, engineering, and math through exciting hands-on challenges that encourage creativity, teamwork, and curiosity. Every session brings a brand-new engineering or science challenge, giving students the chance to test ideas, problem-solve on the fly, and build confidence as young scientists and engineers.

This class will be comprised of a single cohort of up to 20 kids, with a host on-hand to guide the challenge, explain the science behind it, and make sure every student gets hands-on time.

This class is open to students of all experience levels, no prior STEM background required. (Just curiosity and a willingness to build, test, and try again!)

What to Expect

  • Tackle a New Challenge Every Week! From bridges to rockets to towers, students face a brand-new hands-on engineering problem each session!
  • Design, Test, and Rebuild! Students build real prototypes, test them, and improve their designs based on what works and what doesn't!
  • Think Like Engineers! Every challenge introduces real science and engineering concepts through play, not lectures!
  • Collaborate on Big Builds! Students team up to brainstorm, construct, and problem-solve together!

Questions parents ask

Who else is in the group?

Only PlayScape members, in a small group that meets at the same time every week. Game sessions run on private, members-only servers, and a host grants each kid access by hand.

What do other kids see about my child?

At most a first name and last initial on Zoom. Kids are encouraged to keep everything else private.

Does my kid need their camera on?

Only in their first session, so we can verify their age. After that it’s up to them.

What if something goes wrong in a session?

An adult host leads every session, sorts out disagreements, and is there for one-on-one help whenever a kid raises their hand.
