School Science Assemblies With iSprowt!
We’ve been having so much fun with schools across the country with online science assemblies!
Kids were sent Wacky Weather kits, similar to this kit, so they could participate at home while watching iSprowt on Zoom!
We are completely sold out of this assembly, but don’t worry! For your school you can request a science camp assembly/virtual science summer camp by contacting us at help@isprowt.com. It would be fun to connect with you!

The Benefits of Science Kits: The iSprowt Herb Garden
Science Kits Help Children Enjoy Learning
Projects for kids are more important than ever. With children being taught at home, parents need a variety of ways to get kids interested in learning. Hands-on experiments from iSprowt help introduce science to children in a fun way. Studies show children learn better with interactive, hands on learning.
iSprowt Kit 1
Kit 1 is the iSprowt Herb Garden. Children learn how plants grow as they watch their plant go from seed to edible greenery.
With kit 1 you get these benefits:
- Grow an indoor herb garden: basil & oregano with soil that expands like the Incredible Hulk
- Learn how plants drink water through capillary action
- Dissect a pinto bean
- Discover how trees get water up their tall trunks

Thank You, From iSprowt
Dear Friends,
As we start 2021 we wanted to express our gratitude for your support last year. Whether you bought a kit, shared a social media post, attended one of our online assemblies or signed up for our emails, we say THANK YOU.
When we set out to launch iSprowt in March, we had no idea that an unprecedented pandemic, complete with school shutdowns, was right around the corner. A new, small business trying to get its footing during regular times is a challenge. Add to that a global lockdown.
We are proud that with the obstacles came ingenuity and we pivoted our school programs to include online assemblies. We had so much fun meeting children from all over on Zoom while we taught them about science. We’ll continue this initiative in the new year, and can’t wait to meet many more students.
We’re a small business creating a community of STEM-lovers, passionate about education. Thank you for joining us on this journey.
Sincerely,
Juliana, Rob and Robbie Sherwood -
STEM Projects Make Great Gifts for Kids This Holiday Season
The holiday season is upon us, and parents everywhere are scrambling to secure gifts that will bring a smile to their children’s faces. We know that our kids want dynamic and fun presents, but it is always a bonus when that fun can be paired with something that has lasting value. iSprowt’s STEM kits stand out as perfect gifts for kids, combining entertainment with education to create lessons that ignite their imagination!
When we think about gifts our kids are asking for this year, there tends to be one common theme among them- they are fun! iSprowt’s science kits are no different, as they were designed by teachers to be incredibly fun in addition to educational. Each kit has been tested by over 100 elementary school students to ensure that they are engaging and entertaining enough to inspire young learners to fall in love with science. For example, our Cool Chemistry kit gives kids all the material they need to make biodegradable plastic toys, a rock crystal, and bath bombs! Each kit also features songs and dances integrated into the lesson, keeping kids laughing, moving, and having fun as they learn.
The engaging element of iSprowt’s STEM kits make them excellent for supplementing our children’s learning. In the current landscape of the COVID-19 health crisis, many students have settled into attending school remotely. One of the common obstacles associated with remote learning has been keeping children fully engaged and motivated while doing their work at home. iSprowt kits show kids that learning can fun and, because our kits align around the national science standards (NGSS), they pair excellently with their science lessons. Showing children that activities with educational value can also be entertaining and engaging instills a sense of wonder in young minds that can keep them motivated and having fun through remote learning and beyond.
iSprowt STEM kits also make great gifts for the holiday season is because they present an excellent opportunity to bond over something exciting. The holidays are a great time to slow things down and catch up with our kids. With many of us spending more time at home, however, we may have already bonded with our children over interests such as videogames, television, or their favorite toys. iSprowt science kits allow us to show young learners that science can be just as interesting and dynamic, sparking an interest in STEM that is sure to last. A parent’s involvement helps put some aspects of the lesson into perspective and show that the love for learning is truly lifelong!
