CHILDREN’S MUSEUM OF IDAHO

Full STEAM Ahead: Homeschool Series is coming to the Children’s Museum of Idaho!

Designed for homeschool students ages 8–12, this eight-week, hands-on program invites kids to take on a new STEAM challenge each week—from building circuits to constructing bridges and rubber-band cars—while learning, creating and making new friends.

The series meets Wednesdays from 1:00–2:15 p.m., September 23–November 11, and concludes with a Family Showcase on November 18. The full eight-week series is just $90 and takes place at the Children’s Museum of Idaho, located at 790 S. Progress Avenue in Meridian.
