Learn about the coolest people you've never heard of at this story time for school aged kids.

Join us each month to listen to a read aloud and explore the life of a not-so-well-known influential person. Afterwards we'll work on an activity inspired by their field of interest to learn more about their job and the impact they had on our world. Be ready for some hands-on activities!

This month we're learning about Jeanne Power, the inventor of the aquarium to help study marine life, by reading Secrets of the Sea: The Story of Jeanne Power, Revolutionary Marine Scientist by Evan Griffith.

For grades K-5.

Engaging in arts activities can improve a child’s fine motor skills and enhance their creative problem-solving abilities. Activities like cutting, gluing, painting, and drawing can help children develop better coordination and dexterity, while creating three dimensional objects can improve visual-spatial skills.
