Andrea Yi studied engineering in college, then spent a decade working with fashion designer Donna Karan. After having her fourth son, she realized there was a gap in the marketplace for fun, educational activities that incorporated both the left and right brain.
About a year ago, she was having so much fun creating activities involving both sides of the brain with her boys Nate, Dylan, Oliver and Alexander that she decided to share them online. She created 맥스카지노,맥스카지노 a website dedicated to helping other parents and educators come up with fun science, technology, engineering, art and math activities.
Most of her science experiments are modern updates on the classics, like the baking soda volcano. The materials she uses are usually items she finds around the house.
Her kids still use technology, like tablets and other gaming devices, but she says they맥스카지노re only allowed a little bit of screen time each day. 맥스카지노Yet another reason why I like doing these STEAM activities 맥스카지노 to give them other options than screen time.맥스카지노
Out of all of the projects, Andrea맥스카지노s kids like the science experiments the most. 맥스카지노One of my sons asks me to make potions every day. He loves to mix different liquids and powders and see what happens,맥스카지노 she said.
Andrea enjoys sharing her family맥스카지노s ideas with others, but they맥스카지노re not all winners.
맥스카지노I try to feature simple activities I think most people would be able to pull together in a few minutes. I can맥스카지노t tell you how many times I맥스카지노ve seen a cool craft or activity, and by the second step, I맥스카지노m like, 맥스카지노Nope, too difficult.맥스카지노 I try to keep mine super simple so busy parents will say, 맥스카지노I can do this,맥스카지노맥스카지노 she said.
Doing these homemade STEAM activities has even helped kids in the classroom. 맥스카지노It맥스카지노s gotten them much more interested in science, and for my five-year-old, it has definitely helped him learn his letters and numbers,맥스카지노 Andrea said.
Since the creation of the blog, Raising Dragons has amassed nearly . Their videos have been viewed more than 50 million times by over 100 million people. Andrea recently published a book called 맥스카지노,맥스카지노 which became the No. 1 new release in the STEM category in its first week on Amazon.
We can맥스카지노t wait to see what Andrea and the kids come up with next!
