Our hands-on STEM programs for schools give kids a shot at building real stuff with real tools. No plastic imitation kits - just drills, soldering irons, glue guns, and a safe space to try, mess up, and try again. ### What We Do With Schools - Run in-school STEM workshops where every child builds a project from scratch. These can be short bursts or longer sessions. - Set up after-school STEM clubs for kids who want to dive deep and work on bigger, more complex builds over time. - Work with teachers to actually fit our workshops into your existing curriculum, making things like physics or design feel more real. ### How Students Learn - Build, break, fix - that's our style. We use tools that many kids haven’t touched before. Sometimes things go wrong, but figuring it out is part of the fun. - Projects include things like making wind-up cars, art bots, Bluetooth speakers, and even hydraulic mazes. - Alongside electronics and mechanics, kids learn to ask 'why,' stick with tough problems, and get creative with their hands. We've worked with schools like Mallya Aditi and Stonehill. Students leave our sessions with practical skills, cool projects, and a confidence you can't get from just theory. If you want your students to experience maker education workshops and real-world STEM projects for kids, we're ready to partner up. ## Highlights Browse through Tinkernauts's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/tinkernauts.in/stem-programs-for-schools/featured) - [Video: We believe learning is doing.

This whole thing started at home, me saying 'no' to my own kids way too much. One day it hit—those 'no's were shutting down their curiosity. So, we flipped it. Started saying yes to mess, yes to questions, yes to 'can I try?' We don’t have all the answers, but we want kids to figure things out for themselves. Parents, just making space for curiosity is huge. That’s what we’re about. ### My work - **What We Offer**: Hands-on DIY kits for kids, small group tinkering sessions in Bangalore, and school programs. All about real tools for kids. - **Real Tools, Real Skills**: No fake plastic stuff. We give kids real tools, safely. It’s about building confidence and actual skills. - **More Than Just Building**: It’s not about perfect robots or speakers. It’s about trying, messing up, and that ‘woah, I made this!’ moment. - **Who’s It For?**: Curious kids, ages 7-13. Great for screen-free STEM activities or gifts that don’t end up forgotten. - **Why We Do It**: We want kids to see possibility, not waste. Building future makers who love to fix and create. ## More services from Tinkernauts - [DIY STEM & Tinkering Kits](https://mytribe.in/tinkernauts.in/diy-stem-tinkering-kits) · ₹650-2,400 per kit (estimate) - [Tinkering Workshops & Camps](https://mytribe.in/tinkernauts.in/tinkering-workshops-camps) · ₹700-1,800 per child per session (estimate) ## Experts similar to Tinkernauts on mytribe - [STEM Programs for Schools by Robomations](https://mytribe.in/robomations/stem-programs-for-schools) · ₹500-1,200 per student per month (estimate) · Bengaluru - [Engineering & Maker Workshops by Little Wings Innovation Labs](https://mytribe.in/little_wings_innovation_labs/engineering-maker-workshops) · ₹900-1,800 per kid per workshop (estimate) · Little Wings Innovation Labs India STEM - [STEM Education & Outreach Programs by Paper Crane Lab](https://mytribe.in/papercranelab/stem-education-outreach-programs) · ₹650-5,000 per participant per workshop (estimate) · Paper Crane Lab - [K-12 STEM & Robotics Programs by Just Robotics](https://mytribe.in/justrobotics/k-12-stem-robotics-programs) · ₹500-1,200 per student per session (estimate) · Just Robotics - [Robotics & STEM Solutions for Schools by ROBO-G](https://mytribe.in/robogofficial/robotics-stem-solutions-for-schools) · ₹1.5-4L per school per year (estimate) · ROBO-G North Bangalore - [In-School STEM Programs by The Whiz Lab](https://mytribe.in/thewhizlabs/in-school-stem-programs) · ₹250-700 per student per session (estimate) · The WhizLab Bangalore - [Sustainability & Science Programs for Kids by En Madtidiya](https://mytribe.in/en_madtidiya/sustainability-science-programs-for-kids) · ₹2,500-5,000 per child for 5-day camp (estimate) · Bengaluru - [Science Workshops & Classes by Fun in Science](https://mytribe.in/funin_science123/science-workshops-classes) · ₹350-600 per child per 1.5-hour workshop (estimate) · Fun in Science - [Children's STEAM & Skill-Building Workshops by Build-It](https://mytribe.in/webuilditnow/children-s-steam-skill-building-workshops) · ₹600-1,500 per child per 2-hour workshop (estimate) · Build It - [Kids' STEM & Robotics Workshops by Sapna Sparkz](https://mytribe.in/sapnasparkz/kids-stem-robotics-workshops) · ₹900-1,800 per 2-hour workshop per child (estimate) · Sapna Book House ## Book To book Tinkernauts, message mytribe on WhatsApp: [Chat on WhatsApp](https://wa.me/916360004054?text=Hi%2C%20I'm%20looking%20for%20STEM%20Programs%20for%20Schools%20by%20Tinkernauts.)
