Younger children will enjoy making soft, colorful mittens, while older artists can design papercraft snowmen to decorate and display. The fun concludes with a “chill” storytime!
Sockefeller Plaza
Thursday, Nov. 21 – Thursday, Jan. 2
Step into Sockefeller Plaza where little ones will slip, slide and sock-skate in to winter fun! Jane’s Innovation Station transforms into a mini skating rink made of soft, snowy white tiles, surrounded by a friendly fence to keep the fun on the rink. Kids can kick off their shoes and glide around in socks, showing off smooth moves and silly spins. Daring dashers and tiptoeing twirlers alike will find Sockefeller Plaza the place to sock-skate and commemorate the season in style.
Science Bar
Monday, Dec. 2 – Thursday, Jan. 2
Young scientists are invited to embark on a "Winter Smelly Science" adventure, diving nose-first into the fascinating world of scents and memories! Through a sensory journey, kids will uncover how tiny odor molecules dance into noses, sending signals that awaken cherished memories in the brain. With essential oils and a nose for discovery, children will try to sniff out signature winter aromas that bring to mind snowy days, festive gatherings and cozy fireside nights.
