Spring 2024 Youth Programs at the Museum
Winter is finally in the rear view mirror, and we are ready to SPRING into the next round of our exciting weekly programs! On Tuesday mornings, little ones ages 2-5 can learn, play, and craft away at Cub Club. Later that day, we have our ecology-themed after-school program - Young Naturalists (ages 6-12), where we immerse ourselves in the natural world and learn all about the local environment. Kids have been really *digging* our Thursday geology-themed after-school program - Rockhounds (ages 6-12). Finally, you won't want to miss S.T.E.A.M. Saturdays β an all-ages drop-in program featuring a new science experiment, educational activity, or art project each week. Let the fun begin! π π
