If you’d like to participate as a corvid, please wear black (or dress as any corvid) + plan to exchange shiny objects, as they are wont to do. If not, we will still make felt treasure pouches + complete a treasure hunt for goodies to put inside!

M – November 3: Candy Science + Sandwich Bar
Now that everyone probably has a few extra candies lying around, let’s use them to set up some kitchen science experiments. Bring a few packets of colorful candies no one will eat (Skittles, Dots, M+Ms, Nerds) + we’ll do a candy sorting game, then set up stations for the following candy-based activities: Candy Core Sampling / Candy Melt / Skittles Rainbow. For lunch, today is National Sandwich Day! Let’s set up a DIY sandwich bar.
M – October 20: DIY Costume + Props
Today we’re working on our Halloween costumes – anything that involves sewing, cardboard prep-making, mask +/or costume design. Please bring extra fabric, cardboard, + any sewing machines/materials/needles you’re willing to share. If the kids want to work on play costumes, that’s fair game as well.
M – September 22: Outdoor Jamboree
Outdoor Jamboree – Please bring anything your kiddo(s) like to use on pavement. The plan is to close off the top parking lot with a line of cars + make obstacle courses out of our giant space. We also have gymnastics equipment to share (Thanks, Erin!) + I will bring sidewalk chalk. The kids can use 3-wheels, scooters, skateboards, bikes – whatever they like. If you can fit it into your car, you can bring it!
M – September 15: Gross Science
Today we’ll be collecting germs in an agar solution that we can prep, infect, label + watch grow visible colonies over a matter of weeks. Be prepared to also mix up a batch of fake vomit or mucus as well. If you have extra petri dishes at home, we’d love to borrow them for a few weeks!
M – September 8: The First One
Triorama Dream Rooms can be anything they want – it’s a single room on a piece of paper, drawn/decorated as they like, then folded into a 3-dimensional space. They can also build cardboard/paper furniture for this as well.
