Effortless monthly STEM kits that turn classrooms into innovation labs.
Our service provides monthly subscription boxes to elementary and middle schools, each containing 30 STEM workshop kits for one classroom. Each kit includes all necessary consumable materials, reusable tools, and a full-color teacher's guide with step-by-step instructions, discussion prompts, and alignment to NGSS and Common Core standards. Activities range from building simple circuits to engineering wind-powered cars. Schools can choose from grade-specific tiers (K-2, 3-5, 6-8) and subscribe monthly or annually. We handle sourcing, assembling, and shipping directly to the school. The kits are designed for minimal prep: open the box, distribute the individual student kits, and start. We also offer digital resources like video tutorials and assessment quizzes. Our model reduces the burden on teachers, ensures high-quality STEM instruction, and exposes all students to hands-on learning, regardless of the school's resources. As a B2B2C business, we sell to schools, but the ultimate beneficiaries are students, aligning with the growing emphasis on STEM education and educational equity.
The pandemic highlighted the need for equitable, hands-on learning resources that can be used in any classroom setting. Federal stimulus funds (ESSER) are available for STEM education, and schools are prioritizing catch-up in science and math.
