Our Brilliantly Brainy STEM/STEAM Day Playlist!





Happy STEM/STEAM Day!

Here, at Brown Bag, not only do we love animation, we also love STEAM, which stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Mathematics! Without it, we wouldn't be able to do what we do!

So, today, on November 8, we're celebrating STEAM Day with a playlist of episodes from our shows that highlight the awesomeness and power of STEAM!

First up, we've got Ada Twist, Scientist!

Ada Twist, Scientist, follows the adventures of 8 year old Ada Twist, a pint-sized scientist with a giant-sized curiosity, who aspires to discover the truth about absolutely everything.

With the help of her two best friends, Rosie Revere and Iggy Peck, Ada unravels and solves mysteries for her friends and family. But solving the mystery is only the beginning because science isn’t just about learning how and why and what… it’s about putting that knowledge into action to make the world a better place.
