| We are partnering with the Cornell Cooperative Extension to present three children’s programs this summer. The descriptions are below. These programs are free, but registration is required and Children must be at least 5 years old to register. Please visit or call the library at 518-963-8079 to register. |
| Science Explorers Monday, July 21 at 3:00 pm Explore, investigate, and experience what it is like to work as a paleontologist or ornithologist. Youth will have the opportunity to visit two stations: one where they will dig, identify, and label fossils, and another where they will examine the world of owls through the pellets they leave behind. |
| I scream, you scream, we all scream…for ice cream! Tuesday, July 22 at 3:00 pm Learn how to create this sweet summertime treat from scratch with Ellie Hoffman, Local Food Educator from Cornell Cooperative Extension of Essex County. We’ll explore the ingredients, processes, and innovations involved in making ice cream, and mix up our own vanilla ice cream to taste! |
| What do you get when you put heavy cream in a jar and mix it? Tuesday, August 19 at 3:00 pm If you guessed butter, you’d be right…but that’s not the only answer! Find out the rest of the story at this interactive workshop led by Ellie Hoffman of CCE Essex. Come ready to shake up an appetite as we talk about all things dairy, followed by a homemade butter taste test! |
