Hello Fellow Scientists!!!!

Hello Fellow Scientists!!!!

Happy Fall everyone! SMLI finished up its annual summer camp program at the end of August, and my goodness did time fly! It was a wonderful summer and I think everyone, children and teachers included, had tons of fun. But now school is back in session, which means lots of things for us here at the museum.

At the end of last week we had our first Holiday Workshops of the season; Seas the Day and Amazing Autumn. If you didn’t know, even when school is closed, SMLI is open for young scientists. Children grades Nursery-7^th can spend their day off with us doing all sorts of scientific experiments, activities, crafts and more. This year we started what will hopefully become a new tradition; pumpkin sling-shots! One of the teachers, Mr. Dan, worked hard building a sling-shot that the kids were able to use to shoot small pumpkins clear across SMLI’s field! It was a great surprise for the kids, and they became experts at using the sling-shot by the end of the day.

Speaking of pumpkins, Halloween is just around the corner! SMLI is already in full gear, preparing for our annual Family Halloween Event, which will be taking place on Halloween night this year! Families can expect lots of fun activities including; spooky animals, Halloween crafts, spooky walks through the woods, and more! Hope to see you there!

Registration is now open for our Halloween Family Fun Party on October 31st from 6-8 PM.

Please give us a call today at (516) 627-9400 EXT. 10 to register.

Only $20/CHILD and $5/ADULT
