Exploring the Power of Energy (For Every Junior Scientist!)

At GIGIL STEM Kits, we know that kids learn best when they can see it, touch it, and try it themselves. That’s why this month’s “Energy” STEM Kit is packed with hands-on experiments designed to spark curiosity across a wide range of ages—from our youngest learners all the way up to upper elementary students.

Whether your child is just beginning to explore science concepts or ready to dive deeper, this kit makes learning about energy exciting, interactive, and fun.

Let’s explore what’s inside!

Big Idea: What Is Energy?

In our Energy STEM Kit, kids are introduced to one of the most important concepts in science: Energy is the ability to do work.

Through guided activities, they’ll begin to understand:

• How energy creates force

• How force leads to motion

• How energy can be transferred between objects

• How even tiny atoms play a role in how things move and interact

Energy in Motion

With a simple setup, your junior scientist will explore what happens when motion begins—and what happens when objects collide.

They’ll start to uncover how energy travels, transfers, and changes, all through a hands-on experiment that feels more like play than science.

Wind-Powered Energy Sources

In this creative engineering challenge, kids design and build a structure that responds to force and motion.

Along the way, they’re introduced to how wind energy works in the real world—connecting their creation to the technology that powers our planet.
