About this event

Brooklyn Children's Museums welcomes visitors to our new natural science-inspired makerspace: Nature’s Engineers. This innovative space is designed for children to learn from nature and engage in hands-on STEM activities, fostering creativity and critical thinking.

Nature’s Engineers will offer 30-minute sessions every week on Thursdays from 2:30 pm–4:30 pm during the Museum’s Amazon Free Hours, and Saturdays and Sundays from 10:30 am–4:30 pm. These programs, led by BCM’s STEM educators, will focus on developing skills in close observation, inquiry, and scientific processes.

Nature’s Engineers aims to inspire a new generation of problem solvers and innovators by connecting them with nature’s intricate systems and cycles. With its mission rooted in guided inquiry and creativity, the space promises a unique, hands-on learning experience that blends the exploration of the natural world with STEM principles.

Please direct questions to Marina Szende, Manager of STEM Learning at mszende@brooklynkids.org.
