What educators are saying

My kids LOVE Fred. They love the activities. I buy a huge bag of worms and we pass them out periodically to keep the fun going.
This resource had everything I needed to create fun engaging STEM lessons. I have been doing 1 Fred lesson at a time and the kids get a kick out of it that Fred keeps returning in a different predicament. I would recommend this resource.
