Friday, June 25th at 1PM, we are reading “What Do you Do With an Idea” followed by a hands-on activity. This story sparks the imagination and empowers children to create! Let your child engineer their creation with their CMoA provided invention kit. Participants will bring their idea to life discovering elements of design and art along the way! Be sure to explore the museum before or after storytime. Tech Tales is free with admission and ideal for children ages 4 to 10. Become a museum member and attend the summer reading series for free in addition to all other benefits of membership.
Friday, July 2nd at 1PM, we are reading “ABCs of Space” followed by a STEM space activity. Using their ABCs, children will work as a team to design and build a one-of-a-kind space rover that will be temporarily displayed at CMoA. Be sure to explore the museum before or after storytime where our almost life-size replica of a lunar lander makes a great photo backdrop. We’ll show you how to make a fun video of your youngster(s) so it looks like they are in zero gravity too! Tech Tales is free with admission and ideal for children ages 4 to 10. Become a museum member and attend the summer reading series for free in addition to all other benefits of membership.
Want to try your hand on an IBM punch card machine? Punched cards were widely used through much of the 20th century in the data processing industry, where specialized and increasingly complex unit record machines, organized into semiautomatic data processing systems, used punched cards for data input, output, and storage. Critical record keeping was done on punch cards across many industries and dropping a stack of cards was a disaster. Come learn more about how this machine was used and punch your own souvenir card to take home during the demo from 2-4PM!
Friday July 9th at 1PM, we are reading “A Computer Called Katherine”. This story follows the brilliant life of Hidden Figure, Kathrine Johnson, and her important role in America’s race to the moon. Children will design their your own balloon rocket and launch it to the moon. Be sure to explore the museum before or after story time. Tech Tales is free with admission and ideal for children ages 4 to 10 years old. Become a museum member and attend the summer reading series for free in addition to all other benefits.
Our week long day camp hosted at our museum in Roswell is designed to ignite and enhance your young scientist’s (or student’s) interest in all things STEAM! Each day will focus on a different element of STEAM:
- Monday: Science
- Tuesday: Technology
- Wednesday: Engineering
- Thursday: Arts
- Friday: Mathematics
Our campers will participate in enriching experiments, labs, projects, and activities designed to elevate their understanding of the elements of STEAM, expose them to careers in STEAM, and spark their interest in STEAM related subjects! Your camper will leave this week’s experience excited about STEAM and ready to go back to school and apply all their learning!
Campers should bring their own device for activities scheduled throughout the week. If help is needed to rent a device, CMoA will work with the camper’s family.
Masks are required and social distancing protocols will be observed.
Campers will need to bring lunch and water each day.
Stop by CMoA today and meet Aibo, a companion robot dog with advanced artificial intelligence (AI). Between 1-3PM, a Museum volunteer will demonstrate Aibo’s tricks and ability to follow commands. Learn more about AI including its history, where it is used today, and where it is going in the future.
