STEM disciplines are fundamental in setting the foundations for future learning. STEM education and activities play a key role in language development skills and encourages independent and collaborative learning, both of which are transferable to other subjects and situations in life.
Join us this schoolyear for our monthly STEM Know-Hows for Brownie and Junior Girl Scouts! In each of our science sessions, Girl Scouts will complete a fun STEM-related activity using low-cost, easily accessible materials. Together, we’ll explore the natural world, blast off into space, become home kitchen chemists, and much more!
In each session girls will complete one activity and receive ideas to continue to spark their excitement and learning in between sessions. Register your Girl Scout and she can attend all events or just pick a few sessions to attend.

Registration will be required for each monthly activity event.
Families will receive a reminder email with a supply list and login information before each session.
Before this event, please take the time to review the Girl Scouts of Colorado's Internet Safety Pledge, and then virtually sign it with your girl. As always, safety is a top priority at Girl Scouts of Colorado, and we want to ensure she is staying safe while online.
