STEM with Blaze and the Monster Machines- Race into Velocityville

Is STEM a thing your kids are into? I knew nothing of it, until Broxton started Elementary School and brought home a flier about "STEM NIGHT."  That had me trying to figure it all out.
S - Science
T - Technology
E - Engineering
M - Math

Now, it seems like STEM is everywhere, or either I just notice it more now than before.  Did you know that great kids shows like BLAZE  and the Monster Machines also teaches STEM?
