What it is

Phenomenally fun. Extraordinarily enriching.

Children have a blast playing creatively and cooperatively with hundreds of gigantic blocks.

Our friendly team brings and sets up our special enormous, lightweight 10 by 10 by 10 inch blocks for structured hands-on play.

Students develop problem solving, pattern recognition and math skills—while it just feels like the best hour of the week.

See how it works

The simple part

We bring two things. You bring two things.

🧩

Jumbo blocks

Depending on the size of your group, typically more than 100 of our special 10x10x10 inch lightweight blocks.

🎓

An Activity Leader

Science demonstrator, game director and creative play overseer all in one—every leader has experience working creatively with children.

🏠

A space

An indoor space like a multipurpose room, gym or classroom for all the STEAM Stackers fun.

👀

Supervision

Your staff or teachers keep an eye on your children—and they’re going to have a great time too.

The signature moment

The Block-Buster

Kids build a wall. Then they come crashing through it—while you film in slow motion. They’ll do it over and over, and beg to watch the videos over and over too.

You’ll also walk away with great photos for your parent newsletter. (Parents love our visits to your facility too.)

Questions

Good things to know

What ages is STEAM Stackers for?

STEAM Stackers is built with young children in mind—toddlers, pre-schoolers, kindergarteners, and first and second graders.

How many children can participate at a time?

We have packages for groups of all sizes. Our basic packages are for up to 30 children at a time, and we also offer Big Group packages for up to 60. If your needs differ, please reach out and we’ll put together a STEAM Stackers experience that fits your group.

What kind of space does STEAM Stackers require?

We need an indoor space as clear of distractions (usually this means toys and games) as possible. A gym works great; a multipurpose or meeting room works great; a classroom works great when we have help from your staff to keep the children away from distractions.

How long is the STEAM Stackers experience?

We recommend 60 minutes per group, but can accommodate times as short as 30 minutes per group.
