The Water Library offers water-themed STEM kits for use in your Wisconsin library, school or home.
With these kits, we enhance the traditional children’s library or school storytime with a water science topic and an introduction to the essentials of the scientific method: observation, hypothesis formation, testing, more observation, recording and conclusion-building. Included in each kit are a topical “science chat,” read-aloud books, a science experiment or activity, songs and craft ideas.
Our kits are appropriate for children ages three through nine, wonderful ages for taking an interdisciplinary approach to literacy using the STEM or STE(A)M (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math) frame.
The kits are available for checkout directly from the Wisconsin Water Library at the “Borrow a STEM Kit“ link to your right.
