Program Description

Event Details

Unearth paleontology through a sensory alternative to the iconic "insect in amber." Mix together a few ingredients, including some (fake) bugs, and take home your creation to enjoy hours of sensory fun this summer!

Do you like to play with slime once it's fully mixed, but don't like the messy process of mixing it? We've got you covered! Plastic zip bags will be provided for anyone who doesn't want to directly mix the ingredients with their hands.
