You will likely have heard the phrase STEAM and we’re not talking about the stuff that comes out the kettle while it boils. It stands for Science Technology Engineering Arts and Maths. With the COVID-19 pandemic forcing South African schools to shut early, you’ve probably stressed about how to keep your kids entertained and still educated, right? Showmax has the answer. Use these fun (and more importantly, educational) STEAM-oriented shows that you can stream straight to your TV screen or internet-linked devices.
FINDING STUFF OUT (SEASON 5)
The best way to learn is to ask questions. Like what is dirt made of? How do clouds form? And that’s what this 13-episode series investigates – kids asking questions on Finding Stuff Out (2012-now) and learning while they discover the answers in each of the 21-minute episodes. There are fun and funky animation elements on the show, as well as experts who help answer the multitude of questions being asked by these eager young minds.
