With four main galleries, a toddlers-only gallery and more than 100 hands-on activities, Stepping Stones offers children ages ten and under plenty to explore and discover. </p> <p>Understanding that children learn best by doing, all exhibits and programs are designed to promote active inquiry and investigation. Children construct race cars and learn about momentum, explore whirlpools and the water cycle, and role play as scientists studying tropical rainforests and conservation. </p> <p>Stepping Stones offers a variety of educational programs to enhance and extend the visitor experience. These offerings include family programs, school and group programs, after-school programs, scout workshops, early childhood classes, summer drop-off programs, special events and performances. The museum&rsquo;s whimsical design makes it a great venue for birthday parties and special events. </p> <p>The museum&rsquo;s Opens Arms program ensures that the unique educational environment of Stepping Stones is accessible to all. This multifaceted initiative includes free evenings, reduced-fee or free school, after-school and summer drop-off programs, community pass programs, family membership and much more. To date, over 80,000 visitors have participated in these programs.</p><p>Click on blog title or calendar link for location details and to see calendar of other events.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p></p> Fri, 18 May 2007 19:11:33 GMT http://www.vivapop.com/blogentries.php?blogEntryId=887 2007-05-18T19:11:33Z http://www.vivapop.com/blogentries.php?blogEntryId=376 <p>Norwalk, CT<br/>203-899-0606 ext. 24<br/>Camp</p><p><br/>GRADES K-4 (AGES 4-10)</p> Thu, 22 Feb 2007 15:17:54 GMT http://www.vivapop.com/blogentries.php?blogEntryId=376 2007-02-22T15:17:54Z
