Hard Hat Area: Introduction to Construction (Family Program)

How do skyscrapers get built? How do we know what pieces go where? Kids will learn about the construction process in a reading of Susan L. Roth’s Hard Hat Area. This story follows a girl, Kristen, as she discovers the tools, planning, and teamwork needed to build TALL! After the read-aloud, we’ll put our skills to the test and build our own skyscrapers! Teamwork, determination, and lots of tape will be key! Recommended for ages 3-8.

This is an in-person children’s program that meets at the Skyscraper Museum, 39 Battery Pl.
 

You must reserve a place for your child/family by clicking the “Get Tickets” button above. After registering, you will receive emails to confirm your attendance through a Google Form (you only need to fill this out once). If you do not confirm attendance by the Friday morning before the program, your places will be canceled. Every child should be accompanied by a parent/guardian.
