STEM is Magnetic

Help me give my students Blockaroo Magnetic Foam Blocks for hands-on STEM exploration!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Pearson's classroom raised $346

This project is fully funded

My Project

Our preschoolers love engineering and blocks! Year after year, it's a favorite choice time activity center. They love to build, create, imagine and explore! I would love to add more Blockaroo magnetic foam blocks to the engineering center. We have one set of Blockaroo blocks already and the kids are obsessed. Anything magnetic is fascinating to kids.

STEM fosters important skills like critical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity.

Early exposure to STEM helps children develop their creativity, teamwork, and perseverance. Help turn our students into lifelong learners who want to know the why and how behind it all.
