Introducing
Where Curiosity Comes to Life.
Hands-on STEM experiences designed to spark imagination, build confidence, and inspire children to think beyond the expected.
Created by The AFTER Organization
Inside Every Big Brain Box
Every Big Brain Box arrives ready for hands-on discovery. Each carefully selected component is designed to inspire curiosity, encourage creativity, and make learning an adventure from the moment the box is opened.
To support homeschool and scholarship families, every box also includes printable worksheets and portfolio-friendly learning documentation that help reinforce each activity while making it easier to maintain educational records and showcase your child's progress.
Designed For
• Homeschool families
• Neurodivergent learners
• Children with executive functioning challenges
• Gifted learners
• Classroom enrichment
• Hospital and therapeutic learning environments
• Afterschool programs
• Families who simply love learning together
Because no two children learn exactly the same, every activity encourages exploration rather than one "right" answer.
More Than a STEM Box
The Big Brain Box is more than an educational product.
It is part of The AFTER Organization's mission to remove barriers for families navigating complex medical, educational, and developmental systems.
Every purchase helps support our nonprofit's work to provide advocacy, resources, and educational opportunities for families who need them most.
When you purchase a Big Brain Box, you're not just investing in your child's learning. You're helping another family move forward, too.
