Snowflakes & Snapshots: Discovering Winter with Snowflake BentleyBundle up and join us for “Snowflakes & Snapshots,” a
day of wintery exploration and creativity at the museum!
Children will explore the fascinating world of Wilson “Snowflake” Bentley, the first person to photograph snowflakes up close and see some historical snow photos. Dive into hands-on activities that celebrate winter’s wonders including “Indoor snowball games” provided by First Chance for Children Organization, who will partner with us on this event.
Creative Activities For Kids:
-Paper Snowflakes: Folding and cutting unique snowflakes
-Salt Painting: Use glue and salt to create snowflake patterns
-Coffee Filter Snowflakes: Dye coffee filters with watercolor paints and cut them into snowflake designs
Formerly known as our Free Family Event series, Boone Youth Explorers is our newly renamed monthly program designed to spark curiosity and connect kids with local history through hands-on experiences.
Thanks to generous support from Missouri Humanities, we’ve been able to expand this program and offer even more engaging activities that bring the past to life for young minds.
