SUMMARY:Spring Break Activities
DESCRIPTION:Historic Sotterley\, Southern Maryland Folklife Center\, St. Mary’s County Public Library\, and author Nocola Williams are partnering for a week of low-cost activities during Spring Break to keep kids active and engaged in learning while having fun on their days off. Each day is a different activity for your family to enjoy. Explore how early Marylanders used the natural resources available to them to survive and thrive. \nRegistration is required for each day’s activity. Tuesday\, Wednesday\, Thursday\, and Friday are $5 per attendee per day. Monday is free thanks to St. Mary’s County Public Library and a generous donation from an anonymous donor. All activities take place from 10:30 am – 12:30 pm each day. \nPlease note: Parents are required to purchase a ticket and stay with their children throughout the duration of the event. Activities are recommended for ages 3 and up. \n  \nSOLD OUT Monday – Pollinator Party!\nKick off the week with a celebration of pollinators! Children will meet a local author and beekeeper for a reading of Bugzee and the Bees\, a story that introduces young readers to the important role pollinators play in our environment. After the story\, students will rotate through hands-on learning stations. Campers will explore how pollination works\, discover how bees see the world\, practice the famous waggle dance\, and plant pollinator-friendly seeds to take home. Along the way\, they’ll learn why pollinators are so important to Southern Maryland’s ecosystems and how even kids can help protect them. Join local author and educator\, Nocola Williams\, the team from the St. Mary’s County Mobile Library\, and educator Dorothy Birch for a fun filled day of exploration and hands-on learning opportunities. \nTuesday – Wild Food\, Wild Fiber\, Wild Medicine – Register Here!\nWe will explore the woods and fields of Historic Sotterley\, learning to identify the plants and fungi that were used by Native\, colonist\, and enslaved peoples as food\, fiber\, and medicine! \nWednesday – Gardening for Good Health – Register Here! \nWe will explore\, pot up\, and take home the plants that the women of olden times grew in their gardens and used as medicine for their families! \nThursday – Cancelled\nDue to overnight storms on Wednesday\, the site will be too muddy for a nature walk\, so we have made the decision to cancel this day’s activities. \nFriday – Dyeing from Nature – Register Here!\nWe will use plants and other natural items to dye fabric the way people used to before commercial fabric dye was available; they dyed clothes\, but we’re dyeing bandanas to take home and keep!
