About

Summer STEAM Backpack Program (Ages 3–7)

Join us this summer for a fun, hands-on learning experience! Our program introduces young learners to STEAM—Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics—through engaging, take-home activities designed to spark curiosity and creativity.

Each child will receive activity materials they can explore at home, encouraging learning through doing!

Program Details:

  • Open to children ages 3–7
  • 2–3 backpacks
  • Pickup days throughout the summer
  • Pickup locations for 2026 include:
    • Butler
    • Rich Hill
    • Adrian

To ensure we can serve as many families as possible, some activities will be distributed as one per household.

We look forward to a summer of discovery and fun!
