Ready for a fresh, new family-friendly TV show to watch on Netflix this week that will take your mind off of current events AND that features a famous West Virginian? Yes?! Then local (and national!) science star Emily Calandrelli has just the show for you!
Season 1 of Emily's Wonder Lab premiered in August, and it's already off to a good start with viewers, earning a 5-star review on Rotten Tomatoes.
Featuring short (10-15 minute) episodes of larger-than-life science experiments (think an entire swimming pool full of slime!), Emily's Wonder Lab is the perfect way to help spark a sense of scientific excitement and wonder in children.
Emily, a Morgantown native and WVU graduate, is a professional speaker, show-host, and author who specifically focuses on making Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math topics fun and accessible for kids of all ages.
In addition to Emily's Wonder Lab, she has also hosted the show Xploration Station and appeared on several episodes of Bill Nye Saves the World. Her book series, the enthralling Ada Lace chapter books, also seek to engage youth in STEM topics.
