Program Description

Event Details

Challenge Island brings their awesome blend of STEM and Art to TADL for some fun Spring Break challenges for youth ages 9 to 12 years old.  Sign-up below to reserve your spot starting Tuesday, March 11th.

Are you excited for the Minecraft movie coming out in May?  Us too! Come join us to bring Minecraft to life by building a chain reaction contraption.  In this unplugged event, you'll be given a set of supplies and work as a team to create a chain reaction machine to accomplish a simple task.  Also known as a Rube Goldberg Machine, they consist of a series of simple machines - lever, pulley, inclined plane, wheel and axle, screw, and/or wedge.  We'll have plenty of examples to share.  So whether you have built a chain reaction machine in Minecraft or not, the real-life version is so much more exciting!  Come check it out!

Per TADL's Unattended Child Policy, parents or caregivers of children ages 9 and 10 must remain in the library while their child is in the library.
