What it does

Thimble.io is a subscription-based curriculum and live video platform that teaches kids electronics and computer science through weekly classes taught by experienced technology teachers. Hands-on materials are shipped to subscribers every 3 months.

Thimble.io provides that balance and goes a step further by introducing a more personal and flexible approach to keep kids engaged: live and on-demand classes.

Thimble sent the STEM kits for our students and got on a few calls to teach the material to our teachers. Really great experience! Our parents, students, and teachers are all very impressed with the materials and online classes. We have been using Thimble for 6 months and are big fans! We don't have any STEM teachers or programs; we added Thimble's on-demand classes and it has been a game changer. Endless classes the kids are really enjoying. Really loving the ability to offer such high-quality STEM choices to both our virtual and in-person students. Curious what Thimble.io can do for educators like you? Follow-up questions? We’re here to answer them! Educators and parents are…from thimble.io
