Looking to learn more about the leaves and trees found in our community? Below are some resources to support your exploration!  The NYC Parks Department has an interactive street tree map which identifies the trees found in the five boroughs. You can zoom in or search by address to learn which trees grow in our community.  Learn cool facts about NYC trees from Million Trees NYC. How many trees do you think NYC has? The number will surprise you!
Refresh your child's library with new and like-new books from the Kiddie Science Lab Community Book Swap! As we ease back into reopening the physical Lab space, we invite you to join us for our first of many return community events. Advanced registration is required and space is limited. Learn more and register online HERE.  It began with a simple request early on during the NYC lockdown. We needed books for the children in our community. The Brooklyn Book Bodega immediately responded to our request by dropping off the first 750 books to the Lab. Since then, we've distributed books bundles, hosted book shopping times, community book swaps (and even a food drive!), and now there's a Little Free Library fully stocked for the readers in our community and available 24-7. This has all been possible thanks to the generous, ongoing support of the Brooklyn Book Bodega. We look forward to seeing you on Thursday, June 3rd from 10am to 12pm for the Summer Reading Book Swap! We have board books, early readers, chapter books, picture books, young adult novels, and more! You can also donate your gently used children's books. This event is made possible thanks to the generous, ongoing support of the Brooklyn Book Bodega. You can support their mission with a tax deductible donation.  What an amazing morning! Our local community continues to show love and support in BIG ways! Over the course of two hours, over one thousand books found new homes, 50+ hand sanitizers were distributed, and a collection of nonperishables was gathered to benefit Brooklyn Relief Kitchen. Big THANK YOU to Jessica, the Lefferts Gardens Montessori School community, the Brooklyn Book Bodega, Zach & Ivy, and the PLG community! Together we make big things possible! Hip hip hooray for books! We recently met up with the Brooklyn Book Bodega and picked up an additional 543 books for the avid readers in our community. This expands our collection to include more tween and young adult books just for you! The socially distant book swap will continue through the summer until we run out of books (and will not take place during rainy days). Available book shopping dates and times will be updated continuously, so check back often. We are incredibly grateful to the Brooklyn Book Bodega for their ongoing support of the young learners in our community.
