Engineering

Science is about knowing; engineering is about doing. – Henry Petroski

Science is just knowledge without a little bit of engineering. Science for kids is all about applying it to something cool. Something that moves or squishes or beeps or doesn’t topple over. Science for kids is all about engineering.

Find out how science is being creatively applied to the world around us in the Science Happening NOW! engineering section. Don’t forget to head on over to our kids science project area to get ideas on how you can cultivate a budding engineer in your home!

Dr Erica Saint Clair Welcome image

I'm Dr. Erica of Rosie Research. First and foremost, I'm a mom of 2 crazy girls, wife of 15 years to Evan, and island girl through and through. I love creating and teaching kids science activities and projects. I earned my PhD in BioPhysics, but when my girls started asking how things worked, I looked around and realized there weren't too many options for high-level science tailored to kids. So I put on my grit pants and decided to make it myself. Honestly, I love it. I love seeing kids eyes light up as they play with invisibility ink. I love the incredible creations my little scientist students make. I love my life! Thanks for visiting! I hope you'll stay awhile and come back often. Read more
