Description :

Join us for 'DISCOVERY KIDS', our series of afterschool, interactive, enrichment programs for children grades K-4, which expose kids to the wonders of our scientific and natural world. Birds come in all shapes and sizes, and so do their feathers!  Join educator and feather-collector Mr. Steve for an exploration of what makes feathers so amazing, as he shows off his all new feather collection with the most amazingly unique feathers from all over the world.   (Really!)  We’ll use a variety of science experiments to test out the “Dry Feather”, the “Giant Feather”, the “Floating Feather”, the “Zipper Feather”, and the most beautiful of all, the “Rainbow Feather”! Required online registration starts Monday, April 28 at 9:00 a.m.  NOTE:  Children traditionally will go into the program without their parents/caregivers.   HOWEVER, FOR THIS PROGRAM, AT THE PERFORMER'S REQUEST, CAREGIVERS PLEASE BE PREPARED THAT YOU MAY BE REQUESTED TO COME IN TO THE PROGRAM TO HELP OUT WITH THE HANDS-ON COMPONENT.  ALSO, CHILDREN ARE EXPECTED TO BE ABLE TO SIT POLITELY AND INDEPENDENTLY DURING THE PRESENTATION.  ANY INAPPROPRIATE BEHAVIOR MAY RESULT IN THE CAREGIVER HAVING TO SIT WITH THE CHILD.
