mrs. fagan’s story lab

(most) thursdays & fridays @ 10:30

 

Join Mrs. Fagan weekly for her amazing story labs! As a former Newtown Kindergarten teacher and math/science specialist, she would love to entertain your children in the wonders of science. Story Lab is 15-25 minutes long and includes reading a story and doing a coordinating science craft. Appropriate for ages 2-5. 

Please note: Story Lab does not run in the summertime…even Mrs. Fagan deserves a summer break!

 

 

We all hate early dismissals…except for kids.

When Newtown schools dismiss early, the fun keeps going at EverWonder! Children spend the afternoon with friends enjoying hands-on activities, games, and plenty of time to explore and play throughout the museum, while parents finish the workday.

🚌 Getting here is easy: Children can ride their regular school bus directly from their Newtown elementary school to EverWonder. Parents simply notify the school on the days their child will be riding the bus to the museum.

Each Early Dismissal afternoon may include a group STEM challenge, creative project, games, and museum exploration. Activities vary by date, but the goal is always the same: a fun, engaging afternoon with friends at EverWonder!

Single Day: $40 per child
