About this item
- STEM Starters - provide students with essential tools to complete hands-on projects. When combined with everyday items, these materials can be used to design and execute a project using creative exploration and the engineering design process. By approaching a problem or a challenge with this thought process, children are able to make educated guesses, problem-solve, and learn without the fear of making a mistake.

- ESSENTIAL PIECES - (12) foam discs, (12) plastic sticks, (12) straws, (6) balloons, (6) nozzles, and 8-page parent/teacher guide—are provided; it's up to the young scientists to determine what type of structure to build and how they can bring it to life.
- CREATE 6 BALLOON CARS - Includes enough materials to begin 6 balloon cars. 60 pieces total.
- WHY TEACHER CREATED RESOURCES - For over 35 years, Teacher Created Resources has produced high quality educational materials for PreK–Grade 8. We also help teachers create stimulating learning environments by producing colorful classroom decorations.

FAQ
What types of products does Stemora offer?
Stemora offers supplies for science experiments, microscopy, biology learning, measurement, laboratory organization, electronics, robotics, coding education, 3D printing, maker projects, and classroom activities. Available products and specifications may change over time.
Are Stemora products suitable for children?
Recommended ages vary by product. Please review the product description, manufacturer guidance, included warnings, and required skill level before purchasing. Products containing small parts, tools, electrical components, glass, or chemicals may not be suitable for young children.
Is adult supervision required?
Adult supervision is recommended for children and students, especially when using electrical components, sharp tools, heated equipment, glassware, small parts, or experiment materials. Customers are responsible for following all product instructions and safety precautions.
Can these products be used at home and in classrooms?
Many products may be suitable for classrooms, home learning, science projects, maker spaces, and hobby activities. Suitability depends on the specific product, learning environment, user experience, and intended activity.
How can I check what is included with a product?
Please review the product title, description, specifications, images, package quantity, and included-components section before ordering. Items shown for demonstration or scale in product images may not always be included.
How do I know whether an electronic or robotics part is compatible?
Check the listed dimensions, voltage, connector type, board compatibility, operating requirements, and supported platforms. Compatibility is not guaranteed unless it is specifically stated on the product page. Contact us before ordering if you need clarification.
When will I receive tracking information?
Tracking information is generally provided within 3–5 business days after an order is confirmed. In some cases, processing may take approximately 7–8 business days. Delivery may require an additional 4–5 business days after tracking becomes available, depending on the carrier and destination.
Why did my order arrive in separate packages?
Products in the same order may be shipped from different fulfillment locations. As a result, items may arrive separately and have different tracking numbers. You will not be charged additional shipping fees solely because an order is divided into multiple packages.
Can I change or cancel my order?
Contact us as soon as possible at vaioamaonaoak@gmail.com. We will try to assist, but changes or cancellations cannot be guaranteed once an order has entered processing or has been shipped.
What should I do if an item arrives damaged, defective, or incorrect?
Contact us promptly at vaioamaonaoak@gmail.com with your order number, a description of the issue, and clear photographs of the item, packaging, and shipping label. Please retain the product and original packaging while we review your request. Eligibility and available resolutions are subject to our Return & Refund Policy.
