KNOXVILLE, Tennessee — Do you know a child who loves animals and may one day be interested in a STEM career?

Zoo Knoxville is launching a new box delivery system to help inspire the next generation of naturalists with Zoo Knox STEM Boxes.

Each box includes a variety of Zoo Knoxville made and curated items to help your student learn all about animals and engage in hands-on STEM learning.

The zoo said these boxes are geared towards elementary-aged students, but are available for the whole family. 

Each box contains material for one child which include:

  • Animal Information Booklet created by Zoo Knoxville Education staff, focusing on animals that you will find right here at Zoo Knoxville.
