This fall, the Coos Bay Public Library is teaming up with local organizations to offer STEAM Time several Tuesday mornings this September at 11:00am. Geared towards older preschoolers and homeschool students ages 4-8, each program will feature a book and a hands-on activity revolving around a STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) concept. The program is free and doesn’t require registration.

September 16 at 11:00 am, kids are invited to “Blast off With Space Slime!”  in a program presented by Oregon NASA Space Grant Ambassador Sabrina Pingree. During the program kids will have an opportunity to make slime and learn how NASA uses polymers for space travel.

September 23 at 11:00am, South Slough Naturalist Cherie Turner will offer a demonstration of how estuaries work and talk a little about the water cycle.

September 30, Cheryl O’Dell from Natural Grocers will talk about where food comes from.
