Looking for an educational adventure? You and your little one can explore science, technology, engineering, and math through hands-on activities, stories, sensory experiences, and more!
Tiny STEAMers create, experiment, investigate, and learn together. This program is not only a wonderful learning resource for children but also a wonderful opportunity for caregivers to surround themselves with support.
Starting in September 2025, classes will be offered on the third Friday of every month from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. Please see our schedule below. The class size is limited to 12 children.
Tiny STEAMers offers state-of-the-art, quality programming centered around introducing STEM concepts for children ages 2 - 5 years old. Tickets include admission to the class and museum for 1 child and 1 adult. Caregivers need to check in at the ticket booth before going to the 3rd floor. Class participants are encouraged to arrive 15 minutes before class.
Tiny STEAMers is now FREE for members. Present your membership ID card at the ticket booth for free entry. This can be done the day of class or anytime in person prior to the class.
Tickets can be purchased at the door if space permits. The cost for (1) child and (1) caregiver is $25, which includes the class and a stay-and-play wristband to explore the museum after class.
Inclement weather policy: Discovery World on Market will follow Wood County Schools for 2-hour delays and closings for inclement weather. If Wood County Schools has a 2-hour delay, Tiny STEAMers will start one hour later.
