Happy Thanksgiving from the EiE Team! This holiday, give your students and their families the gift of hands-on, at-home STEM activities that are sure to bring them together in learning and excite participants of all ages. With EiE’s all new EiE Families Activities, send your learners home with free activities like ‘Bye Bye Bug’ and ‘Sounds of Celebration’ and keep the learning going out of school.

Happy National STEM Day, celebrated annually on November 8th! This year to support you in celebrating we’re excited to share this list of fun and engaging activities for anytime learning in class, at home, or on the go!

Festive projects with spooky themes can teach your learners about engineering, physics, chemistry and more — check out these suggestions for making this holiday a learning occasion.
