School and Library Visits

Looking to mix things up?

 

Let’s ditch the usual routine and make science hands-on, practical, and fun! I’d love to visit your school or library to share my passion for science through interactive stories, engaging experiments, and catchy songs that spark curiosity. Whether it’s circle time with little ones or a deeper dive with older students, we’ll uncover how science is not just knowledge — it’s a way of thinking and exploring.

 

Visits can be customized to suit your needs and a selection of my most popular topics are listed below.  Presentations cover a range of topics and are easily adaptable for different grade levels.

 

Presentations Includeons Include:

 

Science Circle Time

Perfect for Early Learners

 

Engage in sing-alongs and story time as we learn key science vocabulary including "observation" and "hypothesis". We will end our fun with a bubble dance party!
