With the help of experts from across the country and some very curious kids, we explore a wide range of important and timely topics in STEAM—science, technology, engineering, arts, and math.

Learn all about how data drives two major events that are happening in our country in 2020: the census, and the general election! We are joined by Robert Groves, former Director of the US Census Bureau and current Provost of Georgetown University, who shares more about how children count in the census. Then, Bruce Lesley, the President of First Focus on Children, explains why voting is so important for families and their children. Data science is all around us, dreamers!
Did you know that anyone can be a Climate Action Hero? This month, we’re exploring climate science, and learning about how to use our climate action superpowers to fight back against climate change! We dig into big questions like, “What is climate change?” and, “What can we be doing now to positively affect climate change in the future?” You’ll also hear from Shyla Raghav, Vice President of Climate Change at Conservation International, and Victoria Herrmann, President and Managing Director of The Arctic Institute, to learn more about their jobs as real life climate champions.
This episode, we will focus on the “A” in “STEAM” by exploring art as a form of activism! You’ll meet our inspiring guests: Dr. Chelsea Johnson, co-author of “IntersectionAllies: We Make Room for All”, a children’s book that celebrates solidarity, allyship, and community, and 9-year-old Kaityln, a kid who used her talent for skating to perform an inspiring tribute on Black Lives Matter Plaza in downtown Washington DC.
In our first episode, we’re peeling back the layers on pandemics. How have we overcome global diseases in the past? How can learning about neuroscience help us reduce anxiety? You’ll meet nine-year-old Giselle as she interviews two health science heroes: Dr. Joyonna Gamble-George, a neuroscientist whose research focuses on anxiety, and Dr. Jessica Taaffe, a global health scientist working to fight global diseases.
On STEAM Daydream with National Children’s Museum, curious kids will interview STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math) innovators from across the country for answers to their burning questions.
