Kerry wanted me to let you know about a very cool thing they’re having at some local libaries…..
Have you ever wondered about all of the cranberry bogs we see in our area? The Hanson Children’s Museum is excited to bring our traveling Cranberry Bog exhibit to a library near you! Your child can harvest cranberries and crawl through the "earth tunnel" to check out the layers of a bog on our traveling Bog Pit exhibit. Spend a fun morning in one of our playgroups, using hands on activities and crafts to introduce the importance of cranberries in our local area! Three playgroups will be offered at each library, Bog in a Cup, Eco Tours and Tools of the Trade.
In September, please visit us at the Whitman Library from September 21st to the 23rd, where we are offering two playgroups each day from 10:00 to 10:45 and 11:00 to 11:45! Call the Children’s Librarian to register at 781-447-7613. First come first serve! We will also be visiting the Rockland Memorial Library the week of September 27th!

Thanks to Kerry for forwarding this to me:
A new children’s museum is scheduled to open in Hanson this Fall! The Hanson Children’s Museum will be a hands on history museum. There will be 17 exhibits designed to inspire children’s interest in American history! Kids can play and interact with Abe Lincoln on our Mt. Rushmore Climb, or hop into a roadster from the 50's in our Fabulous 50’s Fantastic Rides exhibit! We will strive to connect Americans to their history by using play and family involvement.
The Hanson Children’s Museum will be offering many great services to be enjoyed by the community. Area schools can plan field trips to the museum, which will include grade level curriculum based lessons that teachers can continue in their classrooms! We will also have kid’s workshops to be held on ½ days and school vacations! Birthday Parties, Family & Kids Nights Out and Educator Workshops are just a few more of the exciting things planned at the museum!
Please check out our website for more information and upcoming events. And you can follow us on facebook for the latest news on the museums progress! We look forward to seeing you and your children at the museum!
