About the Program

If you build it, they will sit! Engineers, design aficionados, and makers are all welcome at this program for kids and tweens. Cardboard materials will be provided, and building guidance will be offered for attendees. Participants will be able to take their creations with them after the program concludes. Program attendees are also encouraged to bring their grownup to join in the engineering fun.  

For kids and tweens ages 7 to 11 years old. Please register each child attending separately. 

Please note, a caregiver must remain in the library while children under 10 years of age attend a program.

We kindly remind you that registrations will be removed if the registered person does not meet the program’s specified age requirements.
