Imagineering
The Discovery Room offers
two imagineering opportunities for children. Registration is on a monthly, first come, first
served basis. Imagineering
at the Library combines literature with creativity, imagination,
and beginning engineering
skills. Every month children will be presented with an
engineering challenge based
on a reading of the librarian's choice. Children will use
LEGOS or DUPLOS to answer
that challenge.
The completed LEGO projects
and a description of that month's challenge will be displayed
in the library.
The public is encouraged
to come to the library to vote for their favorite LEGO project.
Winners will receive a prize.
