This session explores big trends in maker spaces and STEAM learning for young children, ages 2 to 8. Participants will be supported in creating maker spaces in their home, work or community settings. Please bring any 5-10 reusable, recyclable (e.g. paper towel rolls) or found materials (dandelions, rocks, etc.) to your virtual workspace.
