The real-life magic of STEAM education encourages a depth of scientific, analytical, and artistic exploration focusing on Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math. With the world’s largest digital collection of STEAM titles, hoopla can be used as an effective tool to be incorporated in all of your STEAM campaigns and programming. In this year’s STEAM Look Book we have also added crucial content that can help with children’s emotional development, so that hoopla can also be a helpful resource for addressing this important and often underserved area. We know how much your library connects with your community in the resources and services you provide and we are proud to support your very important work. Thank you for all you do! We hope you and your patrons are inspired by all of the STEAM possibilities that can be found in your hoopla collection.

Social & Emotional Development STEAM focuses on developing new skills, critical thinking, and creative expression, but learning how to interact with and relate to others is just as crucial as children develop. Studies have shown that stories can help to cultivate empathy in readers and listeners, and hoopla offers a full collection of tales that kids will love, including titles from beloved series like Sesame Street, Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood, and much more.
