STEAM: A Path to a Brighter Future
Imagine a future where every child is empowered to dream boldly, think critically, and create fearlessly. STEAM education—Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics—is the foundation of this vision. These disciplines are more than subjects; they are the tools that will shape the innovators, problem-solvers, and leaders of tomorrow. Let the Children's Museum of the Galilee bridge between potential and possibility, and help children build the skills they need to thrive in an ever-changing world.
Science: Igniting Curiosity and Discovery, Science fuels children’s innate curiosity, inspiring them to explore and question the world around them. Every hands-on experiment and discovery foster critical thinking, resilience, and a sense of wonder. These lessons teach children that their curiosity can lead to breakthroughs that change lives. Your donation ensures that young minds have access to the resources and experiences that ignite this passion for discovery.
Technology: Unlocking Infinite Possibilities Technology is more than a tool; it’s a gateway to innovation. When children learn to code, build robots, or explore virtual reality, they gain skills that prepare them for the careers of tomorrow. These experiences teach adaptability and inspire bold thinking. With your support, we can provide cutting-edge tools and programs that empower children to lead in an ever-evolving world.
Engineering: Turning Dreams into Reality Engineering teaches children how to bring ideas to life. From stacking blocks to designing bridges, these activities show kids the power of creativity and perseverance. Engineering fosters problem-solving skills and builds confidence in their ability to create solutions to real-world challenges. Your contribution helps nurture these young creators, giving them the tools they need to dream big and build boldly.
Art: Inspiring Creativity and Emotional Growth Art is the heart of STEAM—a medium for self-expression and emotional growth. It teaches children to think outside the box, to communicate their ideas, and to find beauty in the world around them. Through art, kids learn empathy and the courage to share their perspectives. Your generosity supports programs that harness the transformative power of creativity, helping children discover their voices and build emotional resilience.
Mathematics: Empowering Logical Thinkers Mathematics is the thread that ties it all together. It provides the logic and structure needed to solve problems and understand the world. When children tackle equations or analyze patterns, they build confidence in their ability to find solutions—even when the path forward is unclear. Your support ensures that every child has the tools to master this universal language and unlock a world of opportunities.
Together, We Build the Future STEAM education is not just an academic framework; it’s an investment in the next generation. It equips children with the skills, confidence, and creativity to shape a better, more inclusive world.

What if learning could be fun? What if failure is not the issue but accomplishing your goal--no matter how many tries it takes--is as much fun as a game? The YouTube star and former NASA engineer, Mark Rober, describes how this data-backed mindset for life gamification has stuck with him along his journey, and how it impacts the ways he helps (or tricks) his viewers into learning science, engineering, and design. |

Why is play important?
A pioneer in research on play, Dr. Stuart Brown says humor, games, roughhousing, flirtation and fantasy are more than just fun. Plenty of play in childhood makes for happy, smart adults -- and keeping it up can make us smarter at any age. From this video with Stuart Brown: There is evidence that play deprivation can put populations at risk. (Could a children's museum in the Middle East promote peace?)
The opposite of of play is not work, it's depression. |
