Get ready to don your thinking caps – literally – tomorrow, December 4, at the Rogers Public Library! The latest installment of Full STEAM Ahead promises a fantastic voyage into the squiggly, wiggly world of our brains, with a crafty twist. At 4:00 pm sharp, kids aged 7 to 12 are invited to wrap their heads around making their very own brain hats. That's right! Crepe paper meets cortex in this artsy, smarty session, where fun meets the folds of our fabulous thinking machines.

But it's not just about getting crafty; this hands-on session is a cerebellum celebration with an educational twist! While fashioning their paper gray matter, the young brain builders will also learn about the different parts of the brain and what makes them so special. With knowledge as their guide, they'll explore the marvels of the mind, from the memory-packed hippocampus to the emotion engine that is the amygdala.

After the crafting, it's time to put those brains to the test. The event will feature an obstacle course game like no other—it's designed to challenge the senses and motor functions, showing just how vital our neural network is to navigating the world around us. It's one thing to learn the theory, but another to experience the brain's wonder in action!

So, if you’re in Rogers and have a kiddo who's captivated by creativity, science, or both, make your way to Full STEAM Ahead at the Rogers Public Library. Hosted by the effervescent Castor, it's a fusion of art and science that'll spur young minds to think big, dream creatively, and learn joyfully. And remember, this brainy affair is a recurring spectacle every Wednesday at 4:00 pm, where STEAM stands strong and the imaginations of Northwest Arkansas's young minds run wild.

Don’t forget to RSVP! Your spot at the crafting table awaits for a noggin’-filled afternoon of edutainment at its finest. See you there, and stay brilliant, Rogers!
