The snow has melted and the rain is coming, it’s time to make a home for a salamander! Use your imagination and science to design a wonderful home for a pretend salamander. Throughout this exciting activity, we will be learning how real salamanders and many other creatures survive in the special habit of vernal pools.

Science for Tots is a weekly gathering of families with children five and under to explore many aspects of science through an early childhood lens. Educators use play, drama, movement, and sensory investigations to explore topics from as small as microbes to as large as whales! Each interactive program could include science experiments, meeting live animals, and art making. These activities, carefully crafted for our youngest visitors, will have children intrigued, giggling, sharing, and engaged in playful learning. Come for one week or join together weekly to grow our community and future environmental stewards.
