Hoops and Wheels
Let’s put the wheels in motion for action and art! From the beginning of time, hoops, wheels, and all things round have been helpful tools, fun for games, and used to create exciting designs for so many things in the world “a-round” us!

Z-Tag by GameTruck and the Creation of the Multi-Sport Universe
“Play is often talked about as if it were a relief from serious learning. But for children play IS serious learning. Play is really the work of childhood.” – Mr. Rogers
What is play? Child directed play can be broken down into choice, wonder and delight. When children have choice in their play, they develop a sense of ownership and autonomy. Wonder engages children’s natural curiosities by inviting them to create, explore, and imagine. And finally, when children delight in play they grow a sense of pride, belonging, and inspiration.
Can we make our own ideas and dreams come true as we play? Kids work to create ways to play that combine their experiences, curiosity, physical abilities, analytical thinking skills, social skills, problem solving skills, imagination and personalities to learn and create all kinds of games to PLAY! Each child is invited to explore what motivates them and use the maker space to design a game to share it with friends. They feel a sense of pride, belonging, and pure inspiration. It’s a win-win every time!

Teeny Tiny Art & Color Splash Zone
Great things often begin small! Get ready to get messy and enjoy the science of experimenting with color in the outdoors. Rethink ideas about nature and the environment. Why is color important? Where does it come from? How can we use it?

Sugar Bowl – Bowl-A-Rama & A Trifle Too Sweet Project
The science is crystal clear! Taste buds and brains seek foods that give us energy. When we stay active doing things like playing sports, our bodies absorb calories to keep us healthy and build strength. Ionic bonds are beautiful, and kids can experiment to learn about the crystals. What kinds of sugar exist, and are any healthier than others? How does a sugar rush work? Patience will be required to see the crystallization process in action with the Galaxy Crystal Experiment! Creating a take-home dessert to share tops off the day of fun and frivolity for some yummy instant gratification.
