  Please note, STEM Career badges are not included. Reach out to your local Council to purchase.
• tinkering corner drop-in workshop - Girl Scouts will explore the world of tinkering to earn their Craft + Tinker badge. Girls will work with tools and recycled materials to brainstorm ways to solve problems and design, create, and iterate a solution.
  Please note, Craft + Tinker badges are not included. Reach out to your local Council to purchase.
• badge pop-ups - Explore the world of coding (morning) and dive into friction and forces (afternoon) at our educator led pop-ups. These programs will help Girl Scouts get started on earning their Robotics and Mechanical Engineering badges and will tie into Museum exhibits.
