Building STEM Skills Using Legos at 4PM on Wednesday October 28th!

Would you like your child to learn some useful skills while having fun? Join the Aston Library Lego Club!

Learn about Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (and maybe some Art) using Legos! Children ages 6-10 will experiment with Legos to complete assigned activities during the hour. Children will be working in groups, but will have their own Legos to use to complete the projects. All Legos are property of the library, so no need to bring your own!

The program will run for four Wednesdays at 4PM starting October 28, 2015. We’ll let you know about dates and times after that. Go to http://tinyurl.com/astonkidsevents for more information about all our children’s programs at the library.Lego
