Museum of Illusions at Mall of America will celebrate National STEM Day on Saturday, Nov. 8, by inviting families, educators, and students to experience the wonder of science, technology, engineering and math in a fun, educational and interactive way.
In honor of National STEM Day, every child who visits the Museum on Nov. 8 will receive a free STEM Authenticated™ snake cube puzzle – a hands-on educational toy designed to spark curiosity and problem-solving skills. Snake cube puzzles are available for ticketed guests only and will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis while supplies last.
In partnership with STEM.org Educational Research™ (SER), Museum of Illusions is recognized as a STEM.org Authenticated attraction and has been designated among the “Top 5% Best in STEM.” This ongoing collaboration deepens the Museum’s commitment to integrating STEM education into immersive cultural experiences. SER has also worked with the museum to develop updated, classroom-ready curriculum materials designed in partnership with educators to align with STEM learning objectives. These resources are designed to pair with many of the museum’s most popular exhibits, offering teachers and students opportunities to explore the science behind the illusions they experience inside the museum.
“National STEM Day is the perfect opportunity to celebrate how science and creativity come together to shape the minds of future innovators,” said Kim Schaefer, CEO of Museum of Illusions. “Our exhibits naturally encourage curiosity, critical thinking, exploration and fun – all essential components of making STEM learning powerful and memorable.”
