Labs for Little Learners (formerly known as PALS) are now taking registrations for classes.

Labs for Little Learners (formerly known as PALS) classes are a great way for children to explore science in an interactive, hands-on setting. Our classes are for 2-5 year olds and their favorite adult. Each class includes a make and take activity, songs, movement activities, a themed literature activity, and a pack of additional learning ideas to take home.

Labs for Little Learners is now accepting registrations for the March and April sessions.  Classes are held on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays from 9-10 AM. They are offered as a series, but you have the option to sign up for individual classes.  To obtain additional information, contact the Early Childhood Educator at 319 363-4629 . Science Station members receive a discount on class fees.
