Science at Home

Fall and Winter, 2020/2021

Join us for Science at Home, a weekly program of science experiments and STEM learning for kids of all ages. Each week, we’ll release a new science experiment on a theme. Packets with experiment supplies as well as paper copies of the description sheets will be available for pickup during our Grab and Go Hours. Experiments can also be done with items easily found at home. Each week’s release includes a list of related resources in our collection and websites to visit.

No sign up necessary! Just check back here weekly on Tuesdays or check our social media for the latest release.
