Join our exciting, 1-hour program for kids ages 6–11!  Big STEAMers is a program that focuses on the five areas of STEAM; science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics, all geared toward elementary-aged kids.  Get ready to experiment, explore, and make some surprising discoveries at the Mercer County Library’s West Windsor Branch.  This week's topic: Ocean Explorers! 

Young marine scientists ages 6–11 will dive into the amazing world beneath the waves as they discover fascinating ocean animals, colorful habitats, and the science that keeps our seas alive.  Through fun, interactive STEAM activities, kids will investigate how marine ecosystems work, explore creatures from tiny plankton to giant whales, and create their very own Ocean in My Pocket - a mini take-home world filled with swirling "sea."  It's hands-on learning, creativity, and underwater adventure all in one splashy program.  Sponsored by the Friends of the West Windsor Library.
