3 Awesome STEAM Projects for Kids
I know this a bit off-topic, but as a Mommy myself, I felt this was a neat project to share. I am a huge fan of doing crafts and project with my children and I happened to stumble across a company that shares just that. It’s called Green Kid Crafts and I would like to share a few of my favorite projects with you today.
The Art Lab Box
The Art Lab Discovery Box provides explanation of how to make unique artwork with inspiration from established artists. Art allows kids to feel a sense of self-expression and this kit is fantastic in allowing them to do so.
SIX distinct art projects are included in one set. Kids will learn how to make their own rubber stamps, play with the ancient art style of Batik, complete a pulled yarn painting, let go during scribbling and salt painting workshops, and more! With entertaining and creative crafts that will have everyone tinkering and playing for hours, this hands-on box promotes thinking, questioning, and original invention.
