Schenectady Museum Offering Robotics Workshop for Children August 11
The Schenectady Museum is offering a Robotics Workshop for children Saturday, August 11 from 11:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. presented by science author Kathy Ceceri.
Robotics is the perfect way to show kids how science, technology, engineering and math apply to real life. Children already play with robotics technology in your toys and games, but did they know that robotics is also used in medicine, art, music, and even fashion design? They will learn how using household objects and crafts supplies can help you create their very own robot at this workshop.
Kathy Ceceri is the author of Robotics: Discover the Science and Technology of the Future, and a senior editor of Wired.com’s GeekMom blog.
After the Robotics Workshop, there will be a special FETCH! Lab activity using ideas from from Ceceri’s Robotics book from 1:00 to 2:30 p.m. In addition, there will be a book signing with Ceceri from 1:00 – 2:00 p.m.
Space is limited. Register at on-line SchenectadyMuseum.org / events or call 382-7890 x 224.
Age 7 & up. $12 Members; $15 non-Members.
The Schenectady Museum is located at 15 Nott Terrace Heights in Schenectady. Please visit www.SchenectadyMuseum.org or call 382-7890 for more information.
