How silly are these birds?! They look like they’re walking on stilts—either that or they’ve got a lot of puddles to step over! This weekend, kids can create their own flock using our assortment of colorful combinations, then draw on those extra-long bird legs to give their feathered friends plenty of personality. The result? A… |

Simple but highly effective, this Tuesday Studio activity is inspired by our Artist of the Month, Claude Monet and his beloved water… 
Birds spend lots of time building the perfect nest, gathering bits and pieces from nature to make it just right. For this craft, we take a similar approach—using snips of colored paper left over from other projects to create a cozy nest for our bird. Nothing goes to waste, and the result is a fun… |

Georgia O’Keeffe, our Artist of the Month, was an American painter who loved to see the world in her own special way. She decided she wanted to be an artist when she was just 10 years old! In her art, Georgia used lines, colors, and shading to show how she felt. She often looked very… 
Calling all curious toddlers! In Curiosity Crew, we experiment, explore, and learn through play. From mixing colors to building towers, each week’s activity encourages little brains to ask big questions. Who knew science could be this much fun? 
On Friday we’re making an oversized poppy inspired by Georgia O'Keeffe, who loved painting flowers larger than life so we could notice every detail. Why so big? Because sometimes the best way to see something small… is to make it HUGE! Free with admission or a CME membership, while supplies last. |

Did you know bumblebees buzz not just when they fly, but also when they pollinate? Their fast-flapping wings create that familiar buzzing sound in flight, but they also use something called buzz pollination. That’s when they cling to a flower and vibrate their flight muscles (without even flying!) to shake loose the pollen. Pretty clever,… |

Twist, crinkle, curl… and create! On Thursday, young artists turned simple paper strips into bold, dimensional masterpieces bursting with colors. By bending and layering strips onto a base, kids explore movement and design in a hands-on way that made their artwork practically pop off the page. |
