🚀 The Cedar Valley Family STEM Festival lit up @wartburgcollege's "The W" this week, bringing hands-on STEM fun for PreK-8th graders and families! Over 50 interactive exhibits – like robot car driving with Sphero Indi and live science experiments – made for an unforgettable ...(and free!) experience for all ages. 👏
Central Rivers AEA wowed the crowd with Starlab, a portable planetarium where families journeyed through the stars and constellations. ✨
Thanks to the Northeast Iowa STEM Region and @northern_iowa for making this fantastic event happen! 🙌
