Mission Fridays
Adventure-Based STEM Learning Ages 5 - 12
Every Friday. A New Mission.
Mission Fridays are the signature STEM experience at NeuroRoots, where learning comes to life through immersive, hands-on adventures. Each month, students step into a new role—astronaut, engineer, inventor, scientist, detective, or explorer—and work together to solve exciting real-world challenges.
Rather than completing isolated science activities, students become part of an ongoing mission. They'll design rockets, build Mars habitats, excavate dinosaur fossils, engineer roller coasters, program robots, create inventions, and explore the wonders of our oceans—all while developing critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and problem-solving skills.
What's Included

At NeuroRoots, every Friday is a new adventure.
Cardboard kingdom
The Engineering Experience is a hands-on STEM enrichment program where students explore engineering, design, creativity, and problem-solving through the construction of imaginative cardboard creations.
Students plan, design, build, test, and modify their projects while exploring foundational engineering concepts such as structural stability, balance, spatial reasoning, and cause and effect. Through engaging, project-based activities, students practice critical thinking, flexible problem-solving, planning, organization, and persistence.
The program encourages students to learn through experimentation, collaborate with others, communicate their ideas, and develop confidence in their ability to solve challenges. Students are encouraged to approach mistakes as opportunities to revise their designs and improve their creations.
Educational Focus: STEM education, introductory engineering, design thinking, spatial reasoning, executive functioning, critical thinking, creativity, and problem-solving.

Wacky kitchen lab
The Wacky Kitchen Lab is a hands-on educational enrichment program for students ages 8–13 that combines cooking, food science, experimentation, and creative problem-solving. Students explore the science behind everyday ingredients through engaging kitchen activities, food-based experiments, and fun culinary challenges.
Activities may include measuring ingredients, observing chemical and physical changes, experimenting with colors and textures, creating imaginative snacks, and following recipes or multistep instructions. Students develop practical skills while learning to make predictions, observe results, identify patterns, and adjust their approaches when experiments produce unexpected outcomes.
The program also supports executive functioning, including planning, sequencing, organization, attention to detail, flexible thinking, and task completion. Students practice safe food preparation, following directions, decision-making, and independence in a structured, engaging learning environment.
The Wacky Kitchen Lab makes learning memorable by combining scientific exploration with creativity, practical life skills, and hands-on discovery.
Educational Focus: Food science, introductory chemistry concepts, measurement, practical life skills, executive functioning, sequencing, problem-solving, scientific observation, and independence.
