Inventors & Makers and Little STEAMers

Hands-On STEM Workshops, Clubs & Classes for Ages 2-12

Join from School, Nursery or Home

Hi, I'm Laura from Inventors & Makers. Our self-led virtual workshops and clubs are designed to make STEM accessible for you to do from school, nursery or home.

We do all the hard work of planning and teaching STEM for you. We even use resources and equipment you'll probably already have. So all you need to do is get yourself set up and press play on our videos.

Take a look through our workshops and after-school clubs for EYFS, KS1 and KS2, and our home-based Little STEAMers classes for ages 2-5.

"The teachers were able to simply click on their link and use the STEM workshop with their children in their own room. The resources for the activities were easy to grab and low in cost and each activity was age appropriate. The children were engaged throughout and it was very helpful to be able to pause the video to ask their very curious questions and discuss further if needed. They had lots of fun!" (Miss Field DT/Science Lead, Kirkheaton Primary School)

Engineering & Machines Workshop for KS2

This STEM Workshop is perfect to teach your KS2 pupils about engineering and simple machines with hands-on engineering activities building inclined planes and levers as well as a final fun engineering challenge.

"I couldn't believe how easy it was to use this with my class. We learnt loads and it was really easy for me to set up and lead without having to do anything in advance."

The workshop will take around 60-90 minutes in total, though it can be made to last longer.

For £99* you can use the workshop with as many KS2 classes as you like for a whole school term on your own schedule.

Please be aware that for this workshop you will need to source some simple materials in advance such as craft sticks, straws, paper cups and tapes. We estimate the total materials costs for running this workshop with one class of 30 pupils would be £10-£15 with each additional class costing less than this.

* Discounts are available when purchasing more than one workshop at the same time, for small schools or when you will use the workshop with a single class.
