Spooky STEM was so fun and engaging! My 8 year old had a great time! He learned so much! Teacher Jessica was FANTASTIC!

Our son loved this! He came home and was so excited to tell us all about it!

It was wonderful to drop the kids off for a fun and educational experience while the parents had some time to do other things.

Jessica was wonderful. She engaged the children in hands-on activities, balancing the needs of different ages. They loved it!

We did a movie experience. The kids watched Clifford and had a blast. The leader was fantastic with our kids! The kids were dying to see the movie. I was able to catch up with the other moms while the kids were busy having fun. It was a win win!

My kids loved their time with Jessica. They learned about engineering while having so much fun. Jessica was able to balance the needs of my 7 year old and 4 year old (which is not an easy feat!). My kids loved her so much that they hid her shoes so she wouldn’t leave. πŸ€—

I’d recommend Snowy Science Lab for elementary age kids; our kindergartener loved the activities and was especially excited to show off his gumdrop bridge that they made!

My daughter (4) loved Jessica’s science experiments! They were all very hands on and age appropriate. My daughter was able to tell me what she learned about each experiment once the experience was over! I was thrilled with her comprehension of the experience!

Teacher Jessica came with great activities for my 6 and 3-year-old. The activities were entertaining for both kids. Jessica was great with them as well. I really liked being able to get a few things done but still be there to help or snap a picture.

My kids were a little skeptical before their experience started. They said β€œwhy do we have to do school on a weekend?” But they ended up loving it and even asked Ms Jessica if she could come teach another one tomorrow. All 4 of my kids (from 5-10 yrs old) were so jazzed the whole time and loved each part of the activity. We’ll definitely consider using this again, especially over summer break!!

My four year old and I both loved our Grasshopper experience. Jessica was engaging, organized and fun. My son loved the experiments they did together, and I loved knowing that while I got a break, he was getting such an engaging experience. I would definitely recommend Grasshopper to other families who want their child to get a one of kind experience.

Teacher Jessica is so much fun. I love knowing that my kiddo is not just safe, but totally engaged while in her care.

Our son loves science, so this was a perfect experience for him. He stayed busy and focused for most of his time with teacher Jessica and had a great time. Jessica came totally prepared so it was super easy for me to leave them without a second thought.

Robbie asked immediately if we could do it again another time. He very much enjoyed it.

My girls and their friends who joined loved ask the hands on experiences and experiments. Perfect fit their age level but still challenged their little minds.
Laura M
β€œβ€
Jessica arrived on time and was very friendly and engaging with the kids immediately! She was organized, well spoken, and very patient! My boys (ages 5 and 7) learned a lot, made really cute projects, were engaged in the activity, and very very happy!
Stacie E
β€œβ€
Our first grader really enjoyed the heart STEM activity. It tapped into her science and math interests, and was a nice mix of activities. She was able to explain what she learned and demonstrate her model heart, so it was clear she retained what she learned. Our teacher left the home as clean (probably cleaner!) than she found it.
Leslie P

We were very happy with our Grasshopper experience! My kids were enthralled the whole time. The teacher was very nice and prepared. Looking forward to our next experience.

Our girls loved their Grasshopper experience! They were engaged for two straight hours & are very proud of everything they made.

The STEM experience was a lot of fun for Cassidy and her favorite part was making a Leprechaun trap! The experiments were creative and age appropriate, we look forward to more experiences in the future!

Kept the kids engaged & having fun the whole time. Lots of interesting tactile experiments that kept my wiggly kiddos captivated.
Caitlin P

This is our second experience with Jessica and she is patient, creative and helps to meet the kids where they are. The Snowy Science was awesome and my favorite was the Scientific Method and experiment but my daughter was crazy about the snow making!
Julie J

Our teacher was engaging and fun and my kids loved their time learning!
Sharon M

Loved Grasshopper - everything was seamless. The activity leader was prepared, timely, and engaged. My daughter is typically very shy of new sitters or adults and she opened up right away. We work remotely and could hear her chatting and laughing away. We will definitely be using Grasshopper again.

Our kiddos had a great time doing their science experiments and it was a great way to keep our kiddos busy on a day they didn’t have school!
Lily Z

Cassidy always enjoys her time with Teacher Jessica. She rated this experience as her second favorite so far, only beaten out by her Leprechaun experience! She loved the heart model and learning about bar graphs and she was amazed to see how slime was made!
Julie J

My daughter had a great time and I got work done!

Our kids had the best experience, they couldn’t wait to show us their projects and they loved their teacher! Can’t wait to do it again soon.
