Moonlighter FabLab has organized a monthly series of unique project-based STEAM sessions. Moonlighter staff would facilitate participants in building a unique project each month. Each child receives an individually bagged kit, an instruction guide, and follow-up investigations that can be completed after the session. They all get to take their creations home with them!
