On Wednesday, May 13 at 10:30 AM, the North Bend Public Library invites children and their caregivers to explore chemical reactions while creating fun and fizzy works of art. Children will combine science and creativity to make colorful paintings using baking soda and vinegar in a process art activity. Process art is open-ended art that allows for exploration and experimentation. Since the emphasis is on the process and not the end product, it is perfect for younger children who are still developing fine motor skills. This fun nontoxic activity is also a beginner STEAM activity that introduces the concept of chemical reactions. This program is geared towards children ages 2-5 and their caregivers, but all children 12 and under are welcome to attend. Caregivers are encouraged to bring a smock from home.

Children will create a no-bake treat that is easy to recreate at home. Perfect for breakfast, lunchboxes, or an afterschool snack. (Parents may drop off or participate for free)

Instructor Bio: Sarah Greco is the Youth & Families Program Coordinator at the JCC and a Jacksonville mom. With a background in early childhood education and developmental psychology, she is passionate about protecting and celebrating childhood and supporting parents in our community.
