STEAM at the Library: Skeletons!

at Olney Library

Join us for a creepy afternoon of crafting skeletons!

October is spooky month! Join us for a creepy, fun afternoon where we will be making articulated skeleton hands! We will also craft full skeletons with cotton swabs.

This hands-on program provides children with the opportunity to not only use their critical thinking and problem-solving skills to achieve a result, but this activity will also stimulate your child's creativity and imagination, while helping them develop critical fine motor skills.

This program is designed for children 6 years old and older. Children under 8 must be accompanied by an adult.

All supplies will be provided. Generously sponsored by the Friends of the Library, Montgomery County.
