Then the girls will explore inventing, learning to plan and innovate. They will play games and participate in a variety of activities to learn how to solve a


problem from different angles. The cost of this program includes two patches – Senses & Inventor! It also includes admission to the Children’s Museum for the day. Please note, children must be accompanied by an adult at all times while at the Children’s Museum.
