Hi everyone! I usually don’t post on Saturday, but today I have a GIVEAWAY to share with you for a LEGO® brick set of the Snapology Mascot Sebastian Gator! This set is recommended for ages 6 and up! You can enter the giveaway at the bottom of this post!
Have you ever heard of STEM learning, but weren’t exactly sure what it was? STEM is a curriculum based on the idea of educating students in four specific disciplines, such as science, technology, engineering and mathematics with an interdisciplinary and applied approach. This prepares kids for the competitive 21st-century workforce and high demand jobs. Of course, STEM learning is a lot of fun for kids and they think they are just playing… but, they are truly learning a lot of important fundamentals WHILE playing!
Snapology is a partner for STEM/STEAM programs. The extra ‘A’ in STEM is for the arts! It is important in technical fields to also be creative and to use critical thinking skills which are best developed through exposure to the arts.
I was excited to learn that Snapology centers offer STEM/STEAM birthday parties! These parties engage children ages 1-14 using LEGO® bricks K’Nex and technology! While the kids are having fun with familiar toys, laptops and iPads, they are taught educational concepts!
If you’re on the fence about planning a STEM birthday party for your child at Snapology, then be sure to check out these fun STEM sites to see how fun STEM learning can be:

My son enjoys STEM building activities. He is in scouts and got to work on building a robot at the Science center here in St. Louis last year. He just loved it. Be sure to check out Snapology for your child’s upcoming birthday party! The Louisville location offers lots of summer camp opportunities for kids, be sure to check them out.
