1. The Moon is the Solar System object closest and most visible to Earth. Does the Moon turn? Why does the Moon change shape? Can we live on the Moon? How did all the craters get there? At this talk, lead by Royal Astronomical Society (Halifax chapter) member Paul Heath, you can make your own craters, and explore why the Moon appears as it does.

Find out what we can see on the moon with our eyes, with binoculars and with a small telescope. This is the monthly meeting of the Halifax chapter of the Young Naturalists Club. The YNC is a fun, free nature club for kids aged about 7 to 12 years old.

2. Come down for a puppet show of Murmel Murmel Murmel, based on the Robert Munsch classic. All Ages. 
Watch as your this favourite story comes to life!

3. Visit Ross Farm Museum this weekend and chat with their interpreters as they demonstrate the beautiful art of both needle and shuttle tatting.

4. Oozing with disgusting science and interactive learning games, Animal Grossology uses animatronics along with humour and hands-on elements to explore animal biology. It features interactive stations like Party Pooper…Who Dooed It?, The Slime Game and Belch a Baby all of which contain important scientific information in a way that makes kids giggle. So while you might think leeches are gross, they are used after some surgeries to assist in the healing process. And did you know that cows are one of the gassiest animals on Earth? Learn why the dung beetle is nature’s living pooper scooper and why scientists are studying slug and snail slime for clues in treating cystic fibrosis.

5. Head to the Art Gallery in Sunday for Pop Goes the Easel! Listen to an interactive musical ensemble, make music and make art! The concert starts at 1:30pm but the studios are open from 1:00pm – 4:00pm.
