For tweens ages 7 to 11 years old.
It’s not rocket science...it’s propulsion physics! Momentum, kinetic energy, Newton’s Second Law of Motion, and the science of simple machines that move are at the heart of this program for Tweens. Participants will have the chance to visit a variety of stations and learn about propulsion science by making a Copter Launcher, a Mini Spinner, and a Rocket Balloon, while also having a chance to do a Simple Machines Seek and Find.
For tweens ages 7 to 11 years old. Please note, a caregiver must remain in the library while children under 10 years of age attend a program.
