Perfect for grade schoolers, this hands-on activity combines fun, learning, and a little bit of adventure. Join us for a thrilling, hour-long adventure into the world of dinosaurs!

Calling all future paleontologists! Join us for an exciting hands-on adventure at the library’s Dinosaur Egg Excavation Program. This one-hour event invites grade school-aged children to step into the shoes of a paleontologist and use real excavation tools to dig up toy dinosaur eggs hidden in a mound of "dirt." Children will carefully excavate, brush off their finds, and "unearth" the dinosaurs hidden inside. Along the way, they’ll learn about the science of paleontology, the fascinating history of dinosaurs, and how paleontologists uncover ancient fossils. It’s an exciting mix of fun, exploration, and learning—perfect for young adventurers. Don’t miss out on this thrilling experience where kids get to dig, discover, and learn about the prehistoric past!
