STEM Kits
The makerspace isn't just about making, we like to encourage exploration of Science, Technology, Engineering and Math as well. So if you're interested in learning more about circurty, coding, engineering or another branch of STEM, come check out our STEM kits!
Raspberry Pi Yellow Training Required to use
- The Raspberry Pi is a low cost computer that can be plugged into a computer monitor or TV and controled by a keyboard and mouse. This little device allows makers to start exploring computer science skills and different coding programs such as Scratch and Python.
- Patrons can use our laptops and controls needed to control the equipment.
- Free to use
Cubelets Green No Training Required
- These smart building blocks can be used for young inventors to create and recreate numerous robotic constructions using the magnetic blocks. This educational toy introduces kids to STEM concepts through play and imagination.
- Patrons can use the cubelets in their projects but may not take them home.
- Free to use the kit
Little Bits Yellow Training Required to use
- These electronic building blocks allow young inventors to invent anything from remote controlled cars to smart home devices. Because the Bits snap together with magnets, there is no soldering or wiring needed and young inventors can let their imaginations run wild as they explore all of the options.
- Patrons may use the materials in the kit to make their own electronics projects, but they cannot take them home as the materials will be reused.
- Free to use the kit.
Makey Makey Green No Training Required
- This electronic invention kit is perfect for young makers who are interested in combining everyday objects with their coding skills. By connecting the alligator clips to any conductive material you are able to control your computer screen.
- Patrons can bring in their own conductive materials or use our playdough to use the tool.
- Free to use
Elegoo Inventions Kit Yellow Training Required to use
- These kits can be used to teach patrons ages 10+ to learn electronics and programming. These DIY kits are compatible with Arduino technology and can be used to create a multitude of electronics projects including, but not limited to, digital devices and interactive objects that can sense and control objects like robots.
- Patrons may use the materials in the kit to make their own electronics projects, but they cannot take them home as the materials will be reused.
- Free to use the kit.
Makedo Green No Training Required
- These STEM toys are excellent for young makers who are looking to sharpen their engineering skills. By upcycling pieces of cardboard and reusing the screws, makers are only limited by their imagination!
- Patrons are welcome to use our materials.
- Free to use the kit.
Straw Construction Kit Green No Training Required
- Use the straws and connectors to create new shapes and objects. Use your inventing skills, cognitive development, and problem solving skills to complete STEM challenge cards. What kit includes: 150 straws, 150 connector pieces
- Patrons are welcome to use our materials.
- Free to use the kit.
Snap Circuits Yellow Training Required to use
- Use the “Experiments 1-101 Instruction Manual” Guide to follow the included experiments about electrical circuits.
- Patrons may use the materials in the kit to make their own electronics projects, but they cannot take them home as the materials will be reused.
- Free to use the software.
