4 Fun (and Educational!) Ideas to Keep Your STEM Kid Busy this Summer

School’s out and your kids are looking for things to do. You want them to have fun but you still want to keep that educational train rolling during the summer. Just because school has ended doesn’t mean your kid’s brain isn’t still going to be seeking information. Wired Magazine has a few ideas to help make sure those squishy blobs (are brains really actually squishy, btw?) between their ears fill up on the good stuff until they can make it safely back into the arms of your favorite educator next fall.
