When it's the last day of Thanksgiving break and the kids are complaining they're bored, bring them to the library for hands-on, screen-free, playful learning with this creative and challenging event! After getting to know the pieces and how they operate with free build time, we'll tackle the challenge of building a mechanical arm. We'll talk about modifications that will make it stronger and expand that thinking to construct an operating crane!
