It’s almost the holiday season, but did you know there’s one holiday in the calendar just for kids in science, technology, engineering, art, and math? National STEM/STEAM Day aims to encourage kids to explore their interests in science, technology, engineering, art, and math (STEAM) skills in a fun and engaging way.
By creating a day dedicated to STEM or STEAM, MGA Entertainment hopes to continue America’s tradition of innovation. The toy company established November 8 as National STEM/STEAM Day to support interest in STEM or STEAM.
MGA Entertainment’s Project Mc2 features four girls that are part of a spy organization called NOV8 (pronounced “innovate”), hence the selection of November 8. A Netflix original series of the same name helps to bring STEM/STEAM concepts to life, providing an outlet for kids to experience science, technology, engineering, art and math (STEAM) in a fun and age-appropriate way.
“We want to show children that STEM and STEAM are already all around them and that their favorite hobbies are actually rooted in science, technology, engineering, art, and math,” said Isaac Larian, CEO of MGA Entertainment. “Hopefully National STEM/STEAM Day will kick-start conversations about how important it is to provide kids related activities outside of schools.”
