Go on an adventure with Sophie Mouse! Inspired by The Adventures of Sophie Mouse series by Connecticut author Poppy Green, this program will bring to life some of Sophie’s fun-filled escapades in the woodland village of Silverlake Forest. Families can hop on lily pads, craft with flowers, and design their own make-believe forest filled with whimsical woodland characters!
Escape the heat with the beats and melodies of music! Join us for an interactive day of musical discovery through fun classes, hands-on experiences, crafts, snacks, and more.
