About this Event
Storytime & Craft at The Craft Lab!
Join us for an engaging weather-themed storytime featuring Little Genius: Weather by Joe Rhatigan!
With super-simple explanations about rain, wind, humidity, storms, the seasons, and more, this delightful book introduces little learners to the wonders of weather. Children will love following along as a cheerful cloud guides them through everyday weather events, explaining what causes them through simple, rhyming text. Along the way, they'll discover fun weather facts that make learning even more exciting!
After storytime, young scientists will enjoy an interactive weather demonstration featuring a Storm Glass and a Mini Galileo Thermometer. Together, we'll explore how these fascinating instruments can help us observe and understand changes in the weather.
