As STEM focus grows in influence, an increasing number of organizations offer after-school and weekend programs. Find your city in the list below and find kids’ programs for STEM near you.
Nowadays, there are dozens of education programs. If your child is interested in STEM, you might also look into some of these related options:
Engineering programs: in-depth instruction in engineering, an important field with a wide range of applications in the sciences and social sciences
Science programs: a broad field covering several sub-disciplines, such as biology, chemistry, physics, and astronomy
Math programs: teach a wide variety of abstract and applied subjects, such as algebra, calculus, logic, geometry, and number theory
Computer and technology programs: focus on the basics of computer science and related technologies
Coding classes and programs: teach and develop skills and knowledge in programming languages and their applications
Robotics programs: teach and develop interest, skills, and knowledge in robotics and related technologies
The multidisciplinary approach of STEM can be extremely engaging. It can also be very effective.
After-school and weekend STEM programs, like summer STEM camps, tend to have quite a bit of individualized learning. Most programs allow children to work independently and collaboratively, and can tailor the curriculum to individual students. They also offer many hands-on projects and activities—rarely, if ever, will your child be sitting down quietly listening to a lecture.
Other key benefits of STEM programs include:
There are several variations of STEM programs. For instance, STEAM programs, in addition to the regular curriculum, offer learning in the arts. One appealing feature of many STEM programs is that they also offer STEAM learning. They may also offer one or more of the following related programs:
Kids who are into STEM tend to be passionate about it. They tend to love STEM learning. Depending on their age, they may even be considering a career in or more of areas of STEM.
The good news is, STEM after-school and weekend programs open up a whole host of possibilities for future work. Given their broad, yet focused, curriculum, they can be a crucial stepping stone in preparing your child for numerous different careers.
There are countless careers STEM students might eventually pursue. Here is just a fraction of the possibilities:
This is a difficult question. Not all STEM programs are the same. They each have their own focus, approach, curriculum, community, and culture.
You’ll want to make sure you find the right fit for your child. To do this, make sure you research prospective programs carefully.
You can start right here on OurKids.net. Make sure you check out our detailed profiles of STEM programs on this page and through our advanced search.
You should also, though, make sure to learn more about any programs you shortlist. A great way to do this is to ask lots of questions, especially those most relevant to your child. Here are just a few to get you started:
You’re unlikely to find a program that ticks ALL your boxes. Virtually no camp or program can do this. More realistically, you should aim to find a program that meets the majority of your most important criteria.
For instance, you’ll want a program that meets your child’s learning needs. But you’ll also want one which meets their social and emotional needs, e.g., that gives them the chance to meet a peer group with similar interests.
Keep in mind, though, you’re not just picking a camp or program for your child: you’re picking it for your whole family. This means you’ll want a program that isn’t too far from your home, overly expensive, or inconveniently scheduled.
Choosing the right STEM program is a challenging decision. Another way to check out some of the options available to you is through the Our Kids camp and program expo, held in Toronto each year in February. You’ll find many STEM camps and programs there. You’ll also find numerous other types of camps and programs at the expo, in case you decide to go in another direction.
