Event Details

Join the educators from The National Museum of WWII Aviation to learn about the courage, heroism, and innovation that changed the course of world history. Students will investigate the science and engineering behind flight and explore historical profiles of WWII heroes. Age-directed activities will range from identifying planes by simple shapes for our youngest future pilots to advanced aircraft design and a simulated flight operation for older students.

**Homeschool families are invited to follow up this program with a free visit to the museum on April 6 for a tour and extension activities.**

Visit the Museum's website.

These awesome monthly programs, each featuring a different science topic, offer kids an engaging variety of learning experiences. Homeschooled students of all ages and their parents are encouraged to participate. Contact Jfleishhacker@ppld.org for more information. No registration required.

We know there are all kinds of kids with all kinds of needs, so if your child might benefit from some sensory accommodations like fidget items or noise-reducing headphones while in the library or at a program, ask at the Children’s Desk for our Sensory Accommodations Kit!
