🧬 Event Description: Calling all curious minds! Get ready to fizz, pop, and discover at WonderLab Fridays: Science in Action—a hands-on science adventure for kids of all ages! For the first three Fridays in August, we’ll dive into exciting experiments like lava lamps, erupting volcanoes, slime, bubbles, and more. There’ll be snacks, wiggle breaks, and plenty of time to explore and play. Hosted at the Saint Helens Food Bank, this free event is perfect for families looking for fun, learning, and a little messy magic.
You can come to one or come to all!
