Library Hosts Science Show in Penultimate Summer Reading Event

Posted

As part of the Library’s Summer Reading Program, kids got to enjoy an educational yet wacky visit from Professor Dodad, a science showman who taught them all about their five senses. As the second-to-last event for the Children’s Summer Reading Program, the library also reminded parents of the prizes they could win next week, most notably a bicycle or a water table.

Professor Dodad was there to teach kids about two main things: the scientific method and their five senses, which of course are taste, touch, smell, sight, and hearing. For each of the five, he had a special demonstration, with a handful of them requiring volunteers. Taste, for example, had two lucky kids getting to brush their teeth before taking a sip of orange juice to taste how bitter it was. Or vision, which had the kids and parents both stare at a swirl so long it made their eyes play tricks on them.

This upcoming Thursday will be the finale event for the Summer Reading Program, and it will be by far the most exciting event for some of the kids. The Water Fun Day, where parents and children alike are at risk of being in the splash zone. This will be July 9 at the Library.
