Three goats crossing a bridge? Sounds like a fairytale, but it’s actually a great way to keep animals safe! Join a Hitchcock Center educator at your library for this hands-on children’s program. We’ll read a quick story about a real-life animal crossing; then express your inner engineer as you and your adult design, build and test a bridge using simple materials. Can it stand strong in a salamander stampede or a mammal migration? And we’ll end with a visit from a live critter who puts wildlife bridges to use.

Best for children ages 5 to 10 with an adult
