About this Event

June 24---Footprints

Make observations about dinosaurs based on photographs and fossils, then create a multi-step escape plan should your new dinosaur friend turn out to be less than friendly! Ages 5-11.

July 29---Escape Route

Based on photos of footprints of varying sizes and shapes, generate a sketch and description of the animal you believe they belong to. Then, in small groups, craft a Choose Your Own Adventure story of your animal characters. Ages 5-11.
