What’s a ‘makerspace’?

Forget Baby Einstein, flash cards and rapid-fire quiz-style learning apps. It’s all about the makerspace! These STREAM-inspired creation stations are popping up in schools and homes everywhere, boasting brain-boosting benefits galore. The idea: Give kids the space to create, invent and experiment and there’s no limit to what they can do. 

Ready to set up a room (or closet, or nook, or corner of the dining room table) in your home? It’s easier than you think.
