Pow Science Volcanoes
Aug 5 @ 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm

Earthquakes, tornadoes, volcanic eruptions! Kids model and demonstrate the phenomena that shape our ever-changing planet while learning about plate tectonics, meteorology, air pressure and more!

Every participant makes and keeps their very own erupt-able Volcano! Volcanoes can’t be erupted the day of the program (they need time to harden), so we bring a larger version of our own to erupt as the big finish to the program.

This program is appropriate for children ages 8 -12 with an adult caregiver. Registration is required. Registration for Summer programs begin on Tuesday 6/25. You may call the Children’s room at 401-769-9044 Ext.2
