The 4-H STEM Challenge this year (Formally NYSD Kits) is the Mars Base Camp! This is a pretty cool project that incorporates CS and STEM activities while engaging kids and families. This can be done using the physical kit or can be done virtually. Also, there are some other activities that your 4Hers and families can do together! Below are the two links to give you and your families more information. If you were planning on holding a STEM Challenge event this month, contact Brett Kreifels (brett.kreifels@UNL.EDU).
