EVENT
VIRTUAL Preschool Summer Series: Animals Around the Reservoir
July 13, 2021
10:00 am–10:30 am
Join Waterworks Museum education staff from home via Zoom as we learn about the different animals that live around the reservoir.
First, we will read “Just Ducks.” Next, we will learn about some of the different animals that live around the reservoir. Finally, we will make our own animal masks. Participants will also be sent a Nature Scavenger Hunt they can do outside after class. This program is recommended for ages 3-6.
This is an ONLINE class hosted on the Zoom platform. Once you have booked a ticket, you will be sent a link to access the class by the organizer.
Additional Details:
To make the Animal Masks, you will need scissors, Crayons, a glue stick, and either a popsicle stick or sturdy cardboard strip (to act as a handle). The organizer will send animal mask templates to print out ahead of time for the class.
To see more virtual sessions in this series, check Tuesdays at 10 am in July on our events calendar.
Cost: $4
Great Engines Hall
The centerpiece of the Waterworks Museum is its collection of steam engines. Three original coal-powered, steam-driven water pumps are preserved at the Museum and are monuments to 19th century technology and innovation. Leavitt, Worthington, and Allis stand in the Great Engines Hall and reach more than 3 stories tall. Walk around each and see the multitude of perfectly engineered parts that pumped million gallons of freshwater a day into the City of Boston.
