Science Club Soda Geyser Celebration (weather permitting)
For our school-year kick-off, we’re once again reviewing the scientific process to form and test our hypotheses about soda-geysers! Kids in grades 1-5 are welcome, and parent supervision ( and participation) is requested. Come see if you can predict soda geyser outcomes and then test those predictions on the library grounds October 4th at 3:30. If it’s raining, an alternative date will be posted on Facebook, our website, and email sent to club members. To find out more information, stop by the library or email Ms. Boo at bettielueh@wiltonlibrarynh.org.
Make A Solar Eclipse Viewer- And See A Solar Eclipse!
No matter where you are, take a moment on Saturday, October 14th around 1:24pm and look up! What are you looking for? A bite taken out of the sun- a partial solar eclipse! If you don’t have special eclipse glasses, a good way to view this phenomenon is through a pinhole viewer- like a pinhole camera. Ms. Boo will be making pinhole viewers out of cereal boxes on the front lawn on Oct. 14th beginning at 10 am and would love to tell you all about the next American eclipse coming in April 2024! Drop by the library, no registration required.
Haunting Of Wilton- Oct 21
Halloween really should be Halloweek, right? If you’ll be gobblin treats at the Haunting Of Wilton, start it off the right way- with some spooky stories and songs at the library. A Halloween themed Storytime will be on the front lawn at 12pm (weather permitting), before the parade at 1pm on October 21st. We’ll also have some free books available for kids, and sidewalk chalk for some spooky art. For more information, go to www.visitwilton.com and get the day’s schedule of events!
