Several people have messaged me about activities for this semester. The Children's Museum: Family Times Program has no scheduled activities for Fall 2017. The program may continue in another semester. If it does, dates, times and activities will be posted. In the meantime, do some fun activities with your family such as a trip to a cider mill, library or park. Find some time to just play together!

Come to the Children's Museum Family Times Program tomorrow!
Music, Movement, Dance and Art

We have a great day planned. We will have two guest musicians who will bring their instruments (guitar, violin and viola). They will play for everyone's enjoyment, teach some songs, and play music so that the Cortland Dance Group and you can dance along. They will share their music experiences as students at a Music Conservatory. They hope to inspire children who are interested in music. The Early Childhood Teacher Candidates will do "ooey gooey" art activities, share snack with all participants and do parachute activities.

We expect to do music and dance at 11 and 12, parachute activities at 11:30. Art and snack will be throughout the day.
