Drop in on Fridays and Saturdays over break for hands-on STEAM activities and guest presenters.
Dec. 27: Relaxation Stations - Make a mini Zen garden, a glitter tube, and worry dolls for relaxation over break.
Dec. 28: Lego Screen Printing - Create a design with flat plate Legos, then use paint to print your design on paper.
Jan. 3: Moroccan lanterns - Look at Moroccan patterns and tessellations, then use markers, tissue paper collage, and paper piecing techniques to create unique lanterns that cast colorful lights with Doodles Academy. Reflect on your wishes and intentions for the New Year as you work.
Jan. 4: Animal habitats - Ever wonder how animals make it through the winter in Michigan? Learn about hibernation and animal shelters with Panda STEM as you use recycled materials to build dens for our furry friends. Once we build our shelters we will test them against wind, rain, and snow!
