Program Description

Event Details

Children in Kindergarten through 5th Grade are invited to join us each month as we explore the wonderful world of STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math)!  Each month, there will be a new topic.

This month's topic - Make Your Own Stethoscope 
Have you ever wondered what happens to the heart as we exercise intensely?  How does its beating change? 

In this activity, you will make a homemade stethoscope and use it to measure people’s heart rates at rest and after exercising.
