PROGRAM THEMES:
DAISY:
Whistle a Tune: Daisies will perform silly sound experiments that at times will seem magical before listening to various pieces of music while creating instruments to play along.
Ahoy!: Join the Heritage sailing crew as we explore the area’s rich history of sailing and whaling. Daisies will handle real artifacts, play games, dress up, and complete a craft project.
BROWNIE:
Movers: Using our Folk Art collection of weathervanes and objects that fly, Brownies will create several projects and perform various experiments that will get everyone moving!
Science in Action: Put on your lab coat and get ready to make some gak, create colors, design unique butterflies, and solve magnet mysteries!
