I didn’t know much about STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) education until my son showed interest in math and engineering in recent years. Honestly, I am more of a creative person so I admit that I didn’t understand STEM education or its importance at first. The more I read about it, however, the more I realized how beneficial it is to my son and his education. 

STEM Education in Pittsburgh with SnapologyThe more I learned about STEM, I realized that STEM education is important not only for kids who are interested in science, engineering, and mathematics but also those who are interested in English and arts. 

My son recently came home from school after a week and half of doing STEM lab activities. He was so passionate about learning and excited about the experience that I knew this is a passion that I needed to foster.

  1. I’ll admit that I didn’t learn a lot about advanced STEM during my education so the fact that there is a place where children can still learn it these days is amazing!

  2. These STEM programs seem like a fantastic way to keep kids engaged during the summer. Being able to give them an outlet for learning over the summer is fantastic.

  3. I didn’t even realize that Pittsburgh offered so many opportunities for children to be introduced to STEM. This makes sense being that Pittsburgh is quickly becoming a top tech hub in the country!
