Look up for inspiration this week at Longmont Museum Discovery Days.
From October 10 to 13, the museum will be exploring airplanes and things that fly.
Discovery Days Music & Movement with Ms. Kendra from Integral Steps is in Classroom C takes place Tuesdays at 9:15 a.m., 10:45 a.m. and 1 p.m. Sessions last between 45 minutes and an hour.
“Ms. Kendra from Integral Steps will play music, play instruments like the oboe, lead dancing and wiggling, and lead sing-a-longs,” the museum stated.
“This class contains primarily direct instruction, so you will have the best experience if you arrive for the beginning of the class start time, so that you and your child can participate along with the instructor's direction.”
And this week, Discovery Days Art with Ms. Leigh and Henry takes place in Classroom AB from Wednesday to Friday at 9:15 a.m., 10:45 a.m. and 1 p.m. Sessions are 1 hour and 15 minutes.
“Ms. Leigh and new Museum Instructor Henry will both provide guidance to children and families, assist with one-on-one skill acquisition, and play with the children to help them learn and grow,” the museum said in a news release. “This class allows for late arrival, but there is an attendance maximum for each session.”
