Coding, drones, rocketry, engineering, and game-based learning — in a safe, private environment with no data collection and no gimmicks.
Hands-on, project-based learning in the areas of technology that matter most for curious kids and lifelong learners.
Private, age-appropriate introduction to computers, operating systems, and digital citizenship. No accounts, no tracking, no data.
Understanding how drones work, responsible flight, and the real-world applications of aerial technology in science and engineering.
Model rocketry, physics, propulsion, and the engineering design process — from paper rockets to model launches.
Minecraft Education and similar tools that teach real engineering and design thinking through creative, game-based environments.
Block-based and text-based coding for beginners through intermediate learners. Building real things with real code.
The design process — identify, ideate, prototype, test. Real problem-solving skills that transfer to every STEM discipline.
STEM curiosity doesn't have an age limit. Neither do we.
First steps into tech — safe, fun, and hands-on. Building curiosity before complexity.
Deeper dives into coding, engineering, and drones. Career pathways and real projects.
Learn alongside your kids. No prior experience needed — just curiosity and time together.
Classroom-ready concepts aligned to STEM and CTE objectives. Resources for teachers and program leaders.
STEMKidz was built with kids in mind — which means it was built with privacy in mind. We don't collect data, we don't run ads, and we don't track anyone. Full stop.
This is a safe space to learn. That's the whole mission.
STEMKidz is part of a growing ecosystem of education and community sites built for the NRV and beyond.
The broader STEM resource hub. STEMKidz content will eventually live here as the ecosystem grows.
BuildingSTEAM learning — adding Arts to the equation. Will include a STEMKidz tab for hands-on projects.
BuildingFree 80-day cybersecurity bootcamp for teens and adults. The next step after STEMKidz for motivated learners.
LiveTechnology for non-programmers. AI-assisted coding, web development, and IT for small businesses.
LiveLocal life in the New River Valley — the community that STEMKidz is rooted in and serves.
LiveThe personal site connecting all 22 projects — built by a retired MSG from Pulaski, Virginia.
