Leap Week

It’s leap week! 2020 is a leap year, which means February has one extra day. To celebrate, you can visit the library every day at OPL After School and be a scientist with our wind STEAM stations! These stations were provided by the Franklin Institute’s LEAP Into Science program. Today’s activity is engineering a wind powered LEGO car!

Family Storytime & Silly Safaris’ North Pole Show

Assist your child as they become a scientist this Saturday, February 22nd, at family storytime! Starting at 11am you can learn and experiment with wind. Build a wind-powered LEGO car, engineer a wind-proof tower, make a wind detector craft, and more! We’ll also have prompts at each station for practicing early literacy skills with your child. Storytime will be followed by Silly Safaris’ North Pole Show and LIVE REINDEER at 12pm!

Join us for this free and fun family event!
