Learn about electrical circuits using safe supplies and create a little sculpture to take home. For children ages 4-10. Attendance is limited and online pre-registration (children only) is required. 

Join us to learn how electricity runs from batteries, through a circuit made of clay,  and watch the lights come on. These projects use sculpting dough, a battery pack, and light-emitting diodes to show how a circuit works and what happens if there's a break in the current. This hands-on program will provide children with the opportunity to use their critical thinking and problem-solving skills to achieve a result. 

Recommended for children ages 4-10. Attendance is limited and online pre-registration (children only) is required. Please do not register adults accompanying children. 

We will provide all the materials for this program. Sponsored by Friends of the Library, Montgomery County.
