New!

The Sam Noble Museum brings the excitement of science discovery to learners at home with STEM Boxes. Each themed box contains step-by-step directions and supplies needed to complete two or more hands-on activities that meet Oklahoma Academic Standards (OAS) and Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) for grades K to 5.

  • Perfect for gifts
  • Convenient
  • Reinforces science concepts and learning at home
  • Hours of fun
  • Support the museum! Each box was created and assembled by museum staff and volunteers. Proceeds will go to supporting educational opportunities for the community.

STEM Boxes are available through Excavations, the museum store. Details on the two STEM Boxes available are below:
Get Growing!

Plant a mini-herb garden and observe how three different herbs develop into fully-grown plants. Experiment with growing plants in a jar to discover the effect of sunlight on growth.
Fantastic Fossils

Be a paleontologist! Experiment with different ways fossils are made, complete an excavation of your own and study REAL fossils.
