It’s the first day of school for most of the kids and teens here in Homer. In anticipation of the buzzing afterschool energy level we see each Fall, I’m back to featuring passive programs kids can try out. The STEAM activities are meant to get even older kids (7-12) playing, tinkering, fiddling on their own terms while at the same time addressing the mischief that sometimes arises when kids hangout at the library for long periods of time while they wait for their working parents and caregivers. Each program or activity is low cost and requires minimal effort and time. Most activities are set out for 1-2 weeks depending on the activity.
