Sprouting STEM

Where Big Discoveries Help Shape Little Minds.

Today’s Learners, Tomorrow’s Leaders

Growth Comes From Planting Seeds.

Little learners will make BIG discoveries in a space designed especially for the early ages. Upon entering the space, young guests are transported to a rich, nature-filled South Florida backyard landscape complete with native plants and wildlife that they will experience from the perspective of a small insect. Hosted programming in the Lab will include learning through play, hands-on STEM activities, music, storytime and more!

Designed especially for early learners ages up to 6 years old.
