Coming Attraction: STEAM Carnival + Thrively's Kid Cred Game *Giveaway*

Thrively's Kid Cred game
UPDATE: Congrats to boyzrule, who won the Family 4-Pack of tickets to STEAM Carnival!

With nearly every parent I know talking about the Common Core and STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math) in the school curriculum, I'm happy to hear about an inaugural family-friendly event that celebrates learning.

The STEAM Carnival kicks off this weekend, October 25-26, at the Port of Los Angeles, and there will be lots of games and activities created just for kids.

Not only that, but I'm giving away a Family 4-Pack of tickets to STEAM Carnival (see below).

Created by Two Bit Circus, an engineering entertainment company, STEAM Carnival will feature tech-friendly games and carnival-style entertainment. There will also be plenty of artisanal food.

Rooms with lasers? Check. Mad Science demos? Check. Musical robots? Yes, and more!

There will even be Kid Cred, a game show inspired by "The Newlywed Game," in which parents are tested on their knowledge of their children's interests. The game was created by Thrively, a family website that helps kids discover their passions.

This sounds like such a fun way to get outside and spend time with the kiddos while also encouraging them to get involved in science, tech, and the arts!

October 25-26 (11 a.m.-7 p.m.)
CRAFTED at The Port of Los Angeles
Warehouse No. 10
112 E. 22nd Street 
San Pedro, CA 90731

    I am always ready to attend such interesting events, especially the carnival shows. At the domestic Los Angeles event venues the carnival shows have been organized annually. Attending those shows with family is just a fun thing. Isn’t it?
