    • STEAM Kids: Sink or Float? (opens in new tab)

      Program 1B, Read & Roam Garden — Zone 1 - Library, Read & Roam Garden — Zone 3 - Open Lawn

      Ages 5-8

      Children will investigate the science of buoyancy by making predictions and testing whether objects sink or float. Through observation, experimentation, and engineering design, they will discover how an object's shape and material affect its ability to float. For ages 5-8. Caregivers may stay and participate if they wish. Children who are comfortable attending independently may do so.

       

    • Paws to Read (opens in new tab)

      Program 1C

      Ages 4-12

      Practice reading to a friendly dog who is a very good listener! Research shows that therapy dogs can help to reduce anxiety as well as improve focus and attention span. Therapy dogs serve as a calm presence and allow children to work to improve literacy, comprehension, and communication with a nonjudgmental listener. Registration required for your 15-minute session.

      Please arrive 10 minutes before your session if you need to pick out a book, then check-in at the Children's Desk!
