Beakers, lab coats, and safety goggles are in! Science just got even cooler and there are a lot of jobs open in the field. These are just a few of the many reasons to hunker down and do some science experiments to put your brain to work. Here’s some surprising news: most girls in 4th grade are interested in science, but by 8th grade the numbers dramatically drop along with girls’ confidence in science. We’ve found a company which hopes to keep that confidence up and lab coats in style.
Yellow Scope offers science kits targeting the creative and scientific minds of girls. The founders are scientists who also happen to be mothers, so they see first hand the gender gap in the STEM fields. These esteemed women in the field want to help empower young girls to stay interested and learn at the same time. We appreciate that their scientific wonder never wavered.
The Foundation Chemistry Kit by Yellow Scope is an atomic step up from your usual DIY or arts and crafts projects. These kits challenge young girls, build up their molecular skills and teach them about chemical reactions. We love supporting a company that sees the value in keeping young minds stimulated. Now lets put our safety goggles on and get to work!
