Read-aloud storytime + STEAM activity for ages 6 to 9
We’ll begin by sharing a great story together, and then bring the book to life through a hands-on STEAM activity inspired by the story.
Here’s what we’ll be reading A Bean, A Stalk, and a Boy Named Jack by William Joyce
Activity: We'll use different building materials to construct a parachute for Jack to escape the giant and a beanstalk and zipline to help get Jack down as quickly and safely as possible.
