Fossil Hunters

Unearth a Story: Ages 10-13

This is your chance to step into a paleontologist’s boots! Tweens and teens will create fossils, build mini dino ecosystems, and immerse themselves in the mysteries of the prehistoric era.

Weekly Schedule

June 4: Fossil Formation
Fossils aren’t always easy to find, but they’re easy to make! Press small dinosaur figures, shells, and leaves into air-dry clay to create your own take-home fossil.

June 11: Reading Rocks!
Discover the world of rocks and minerals through stories and hands-on fun! Join us as we dig in and become geologists for a day!

June 18: Prehistoric Magnets
Preserve a prehistoric memento! Draw a dinosaur eye, mosquito, or another design of your choosing, then cover it with a clear glass gem to create a cool magnified effect. Add a magnet to showcase your creation for all to see! 

June 25: Perler Bead Dinosaurs
Dig into some prehistoric pixelated fun! Design different dinosaurs using Perler beads.

July 9: Build a Dinosaur Terrarium
Wish you could have a pet dinosaur? Now is your chance! Create a miniature prehistoric habitat using gravel, tiny plants, and a pocket-sized dinosaur.
