Check it out! We now have S.T.E.A.M to Go activity bags available curbside when you pick up your books! The S.T.E.A.M (science, technology, engineering, art & math) bags contain one activity sheet, supplies to do the activity and are totally free (while supplies last)! If you need scissors or markers (which are not in the bag) to do your project let us know, and we will get some to you. Please note some of the bags may contain small parts and may not be suitable for children under 3. Some of the activities contain food items like crackers or cereal for sorting and are clearly marked if your child has a food allergy.
About Miss Lynn – Experienced teacher Lynn Adams shares her skills at facilitating S.T.E.A.M activities. A South Berwick mom and U of Rhode Island graduate student, Lynn has been doing her final requirement, a library internship, at the York Public Library. Her energy and enthusiasm has made it possible for us to offer special online videos and take home science projects. We’re so grateful she chose to share her skills with us.
