What if a face didn’t have to look… well, like a face? That’s part of what made Pablo Picasso, our Artist of the Month, such a revolutionary artist. He looked at familiar things, like faces, and broke them apart, rearranged them and put them back together in unexpected ways. |

Kickstart your day with a joyful tune in Kerry's music class! Toddlers learn about rhythms and beats through active movement and enthusiastic singing. 
Is yours spooky? Silly? Surprised? Slightly grumpy because someone woke it from its pumpkin patch nap? Kids can glue their very own orange paper gourd onto a textured black background and then give it a face that’s entirely their own. No pumpkin-carving tools required—just glue, creativity, and a lot of Halloween spirit! |

NEW! Stories introduce toddlers to new words, ideas, characters and experiences while helping build the foundation for a lifelong love of reading. That’s the idea behind Pages & Play, a new class on Thursdays where a great children’s book is just the beginning. We might create something, play a game, move like the characters, pretend… 
For this creepy-crawly craft on Tuesday, kids will make their own spider and learn a little science along the way. A spider’s body is made up of two main parts: the cephalothorax (say that three times fast!) and the abdomen. Then come the eight legs! Keep your spider flat, or bend and glue those legs… |
1 event,Five little pumpkins, sitting on a gate… Except these pumpkins are made with your fingerprints! Inspired by illustrator Ed Emberley, our Artist of the Month, kids can turn simple fingerprint dots into a spooky Halloween scene on Friday. Add a few lines, give each pumpkin a jack-o-lantern face, and voilà—a whole pumpkin patch made by… |

Butterflies get all the glory, but moths are pretty fascinating, too. There are more than 160,000 known species of moths, and they come in all shapes, sizes, colors, and patterns. Some even use camouflage to disappear right before your eyes. |

Rolling Eyeballs - Drop paint-covered “eyeballs” into a bin, then shake, shake, SHAKE! As the eyes roll, tumble, and bounce across the paper, they leave behind a wild crisscross of lines, almost like a tangled spiderweb. Then for the finishing touch, glue on a creepy-crawly spider. |

Kickstart your day with a joyful tune in Kerry's music class! Toddlers learn about rhythms and beats through active movement and enthusiastic singing. Our Author/Illustrator and Artist of the Month are teaming up for a Halloween mash-up! Ed Emberley taught us that you can make amazing pictures by combining simple shapes. Pablo Picasso showed us that faces don’t have to look the way we expect—they can be rearranged, turned around and seen from all different angles. Put those… |

Pablo Picasso 3D Faces - Inspired by the wild, wonderfully wonky faces of our Artist of the Month Pablo Picasso, kids can create their own 3D characters by mixing and matching a collection of eyes, noses, mouths and other features. Choose your shapes, decorate both sides, then notch the pieces together and—voilà!—you’ve got a freestanding… |

We’re moving beyond fingerprints and putting the whole hand to work! Kids will make a blobby little ghost, then trace and cut out their hands to create its arms. It’s a simple Halloween craft, and a pretty sweet keepsake, too. Because someday, those little hands won’t be quite so little. Awww! |

Does your dino have a killer bite? It’s time for a little prehistoric dental checkup on Tuesday. Decide whether this T-Rex has a dazzling set of sharp white chompers, or if he has been sneaking way too many sugary snacks!
-
Ed Emberley Handprint Dinosaurs - Channel your inner Ed Emberley (our Author/Illustrator of the Month) in the Studio and turn not just fingers into one seriously prehistoric masterpiece, but your entire hand! Create a Stegosaurus with a spiky spine because apparently, when it comes to dinosaurs, one little print just isn’t dino-mite enough. |

Inspired by the playful art of our Artist of the Month Ed Emberley, kids can use basic shapes to build their own prehistoric beasts. Start with a familiar favorite—T. rex, Stegosaurus, Triceratops—or let your imagination run completely wild. Known species are welcome. Completely made-up species are encouraged. |

It’s Dino Week… so naturally, we asked Matt from Animal World Experience to bring a T-Rex. He politely declined. Something about “too big,” “too dangerous,” and “have you seen the size of that door?” Instead, he will likely be bringing some of the modern-day cousins of our prehistoric pals on Thursday. They may not have…

Something is stirring inside that egg… Color your baby dinosaur any way you like, then cover it up with an egg and let it wait patiently for the big moment. When you decide the time is right, gently scrape the center and carefully pull back the outer shell to reveal the hatchling hiding underneath! |

We’ve got a dinosaur skeleton to put together—but there’s one small problem: the bones are all mixed up! With an assortment of bones in different shapes and sizes, kids will have to figure out which pieces go where and build their very own dino skeleton. Think of it as a prehistoric puzzle, with a little… |
