For most people, summertime means outdoor activities: sports, swimming, playing at the park, and so forth. But when winter comes around, we tend to hunker down inside our homes.

Friends, exciting things are happening at Pitsco!
In November, we officially announced our partnership with TTS, which will expand and grow early learning opportunities for children everywhere. We are all aware that hands-on learning begins early in a child’s development and that a child naturally learns through exploration and play – both extremely important qualities for STEM-based experiences.
