Little Edisons – Slightly Scary Stuff

Get ready for Halloween by reading the slightly scary book The Little Old Lady Who Was Not Afraid of Anything by author Linda Williams and illustrator Megan Lloyd. Little Edisons learn about all kinds of things we find scary but are perfectly harmless and listen to some scary sounds and guess what they are. Then participants put on a witch’s hat, make some slime, plop it in a jar, and decorate it with a scary face to prove “we ain’t afraid of no ghosts!

miSci’s Little Edisons program, for kids ages 3 to 5, is fun way to nurture the curiosity of pint-sized future engineers, chemists, and inventors.
