Summer at the Library: Science Experiments with Mad Science!
*The event has already taken place on this date: Wed, 07/08/2026
Bring science to life in this fun, hands-on adventure through our planet’s past and present! Kids will dig for fossils, explore dinosaur teeth and diets, and get hands-on with rocks, minerals, and moving tectonic plates to discover how Earth’s amazing landforms are made.
Participants will also discover how to care for our planet through hands-on fun—building water filters and creating solar-powered art. They will wrap up by exploring the wild world of weather: learning about seasons, making forecasts, and even creating a mini indoor storm!
