AVAILABLE NOW: EXPLORERS OF THE DEEP

The 2022 4-H STEM Challenge Kit, Explorers of the Deep, is officially here!

Developed by Rutgers University, the three activities in this kit will take kids ages 8-14 on an underwater adventure no matter where they live, all while offering them a hands-on way to explore different aspects of STEM career pathways.

Get ready to dive into deep-sea mysteries and tackle some of the same questions that today’s top ocean scientists and engineers are investigating!

DIVE IN: SEE WHAT’S INSIDE THE KIT

1. OCEAN ROBOT TEST TANK

Prepare your mini ocean robot for a research mission, using a waterproof household container to act as your test tank! Follow the mission cards to learn how ocean robots work through the concepts of density and buoyancy.

This activity will also cover topics like climate change and its impact on ocean systems!

2. OCEAN EXPEDITION

Play an immersive board game (with optional trivia cards) that will help you explore the mysteries of the ocean. Watch as augmented reality features bring the

game to life!

You’ll learn about typical experiences that ocean robots encounter, identify how you’re connected to the sea no matter where you live, and find out how much more we still have to discover about our ocean.

3. OCEAN COMMUNICATOR

Create your very own ocean-related billboard or advertisement! Topics you can explore include the relationship between ocean challenges and climate change, impact on human and animal life, and how science is being used to address these issues.

Take what you’ve learned from the 4-H STEM Challenge and share with others in your community the ways we can help protect the ocean.

 4-H welcomes kids of all beliefs and backgrounds, giving them a voice to express who they are and how they make their lives and communities better.
