Science World is proud to introduce Big Science for Little Hands, a science resource designed specifically for teachers and care providers of 3-5 year old children.  We know that care providers and  parents provide many creative opportunities for young children to explore their world, and our aim is develop activities which inspire further exploration and discovery.

In this workshop, you'll have the opportunity to try out activities from our resource packages 'Round the Circle' and 'Wet and Dry'.  We'll share our experiences doing science with young children, and discuss how the
activities might work in your setting.

These workshops are offered in partnership between  The CCRR Program, ECEBC Okanagan Branch, and Science World. Come enjoy the fun of science!!
