Grants for STEM Education
There are thousands of grants for STEM education for teachers, administrators, curriculum coordinators, as well as clubs and camps to apply for. And it all starts with KIBO.

Give children the chance to make their ideas tangible.
You’re probably thinking that KIBO only qualifies for robotics or technology grants, but you’d be shortchanging yourself (and your students). KIBO fits in to almost every aspect of early learning curricula, and therefore, can expand your qualifications for specific grants for STEM education.
Start with the Need
Robotics engages young children in learning concepts and skills through experiential opportunities that are developmentally appropriate.
KIBO integrates computer science and engineering with math, literacy, physical movement and the arts. It provides endless opportunities for educational, as well as social and emotional growth.
Discuss the Research
Unlike many programming tools and coding robots for kids, KIBO is backed by science.
Real research by Prof. Marina Bers at Boston College, and her previous work at the MIT Media Lab with Seymour Papert with over 20 years in learning technologies and child development.
Summarize with the Benefits
Designed for open-ended play, KIBO let’s children make (and learn) almost anything with the integration of the art platforms.
Bring a character from a story to life. Become builders and inventors. Experiment. Create. Develop their own sense of understanding. Explore individuality. And most of all, enjoy learning new things in new ways while gaining self-confidence that stays with them for the rest of their lives.
STEM/STEAM Grants and Funding Resources
There are many different ways to get STEM/STEAM grants for the purchase of educational technology. Learn about some of the ways you can find and secure STEM/STEAM grants and funding.
"In applying for a Maryland State Department of Education grant specifically for robotics instruction, I drew heavily on KinderLab Robotics’ research regarding the benefits of play and creativity with KIBO. The work Kinderlab Robotics has already done to map their KIBO curriculum to CSTA Standards provided a framework for aligning my proposal with MSDE standards."
