Program Description
Event Details
Discover how worms magically transform waste through vermiculture–worm composting! Meet live red wiggler worms, use dramatic play to explore what it’s like to be a worm, and learn how they help the plants around. Conduct an experiment to see how worms adapt to their environment.
This program will be presented by educators from the Children's Museum & Theater of Maine. Space is limited to just 25 children and registration is recommended. The recommended age range for Worms and Our World is 5-8 years.
