STEM 4 Kids (grades K-3) and Young Inventors (grades 4-6) offer hands-on, engaging activities designed to spark curiosity, creativity, and problem-solving skills. These programs, sponsored by National Grid, provide take-home learning materials so children can continue their STEM adventures beyond the classroom.
