Event Details

Rocket Academy is a library and school program where kids train to be astronauts! In the process, we'll teach them about space through hands-on activities, including a chance to build and launch paper rockets. Other demos include a large "orbit hoop" where kids can use marbles to mimic planet orbits, creating a vacuum with soda cans and hot water, and a fun physical recreation of the solar system orbits where the kids spin around each other to represent the planets. 

ONE REGISTRATION PER CHILD

Best For: Grades K-6
