Meet Bennie the Bison, Nebraska's biggest fan of STEM and STEAM activities. This wacky, knowledgeable, and fuzzy Bison, with his thick brown fur and hilariously large glasses, always has a crazy adventure lined up for those who dare to join him. Imagine Bennie, standing as tall as a corn stalk in the golden fields of Nebraska, engrossed in a chemistry experiment, his hooves fumbling with test tubes, his glasses fogging up in excitement. He's always surrounded by a hilarious herd of kids who look like tiny scientists, donning white lab coats and safety googles - their cheeks flushed with excitement and curiosity. These Nebraska kids are as diverse as the state itself, coming from bustling cities like Lincoln and Omaha, quiet suburban towns, and beautiful rolling farmland. You’ll find them tackling coding challenges, constructing bridges, or designing creative art projects. They are as energetic as the mighty Platte River and as resilient as the Sandhill Cranes that migrate through their state. Bennie and his little Nebraskan scientists know that the sky is not the limit, but just the beginning for their space projects. They build rockets that they believe could soar higher than the Chimney Rock! They laugh, they stumble, they experiment, and they learn, turning Nebraska into a playground of knowledge and fun. So, join Bennie, the nerdy Nebraska Bison, as he trots along the Cornhusker State, spreading the joy of STEM and STEAM activities among its youngest inhabitants. You're guaranteed a good chuckle and a great adventure as you explore the fascinating world of science, technology, engineering, arts, and math together! Let's raise our test tubes and paintbrushes in a toast to learning the Bennie way!
