Play your way into STEAM! Join us for games that spark curiosity, build critical thinking and encourage storytelling, strategy and problem-solving.

STEAM learning is all around us - even in games!

In STEAM Kids: Game Lab, children explore games that challenge their minds, foster creativity and build STEAM skills like logic, math, storytelling and collaboration. Whether we’re playing strategy games like chess, diving into roleplay in Dungeons & Dragons or trying out hands-on challenges, this program encourages curiosity, social connection and brain-powered fun. Come ready to play, imagine and learn together!

Make the best of limited information in Sushi Go Party, find ways of threading odd-shaped minos so that they only touch your color at the corners in Blokus, and engage in collaboration and competition while determining optimal routes and strategies in Nintendo Switch games.
