What’s it Like to Be a Paleontologist

About this event

Be What’s It Like to Be… is a fun monthly program for kids ages 6–8, held on the third Saturday of each month. Each session introduces a different field of science, giving young explorers a chance to discover, experiment, and learn in exciting new ways. After each program, participants earn a special pin that matches the month’s theme—collect all 12 to become a super scientist! Programs begin indoors, with some adventures staying inside and others heading outdoors (weather permitting). Pre-registration is required, as supplies are limited.
