Family Engineering is a new program being developed,
with support from the National Science Foundation, to actively engage parents and their children in fun,
hands-on engineering activities and events. Modeled after
the popular Family Science and Family Math programs,
Family Engineering will introduce parents and elementary-aged children to the exciting world of engineering by
providing resources for families, schools, and organizations
to facilitate informal engineering experiences. These
resources will include:
