PLAY AT THE LIBRARY!

GUESS WHAT? SPACE.
A REVAMP OF GUESS WHO?

This game is appropriate for pre-Kindergarten (with adult supervision) and up.

​Object of the game:
  • Participants will be able to characterize objects in our Universe, and be encouraged to contemplate their properties.

The game has instructions included and will be at the library during the length of the summer reading program. Can't find it sitting out? Just ask a librarian for it. Made at the library for the library with donated game boards.

Make sure you bring a friend to come on in to try it out!

  • The different objects are located at various distances from us and can be organized by their relative distance from the Earth.

ROCKET MODEL (CREATED AT THE LIBRARY!)

Stop by the library during the Universe in Stories program and see the "rocket" made by our technology assistant, Tami. It has been constructed and held together with special "space tape" (Duct Tape) this space craft will be on display in the Youth Room for the little children to play with until it blasts off into space.

It would go great with our Dress Up Box costumes as well so feel free to use it as a prop for photo opportunity at the library.
