Welcome to Science Story Wednesday! Each week, we feature a science themed book read aloud by Ms. Carmen of Kiddie Science. A new story will be posted here on our blog, and on our Facebook page. You can choose how and when to view. Hope you and your young scientist enjoy it!

Have you ever wondered what's inside a whale? Or a sea star? Or a jelly fish? Let's take a trip under the sea with Sea Bones.

It was a fun and informative time at the Kiddie Science Lab with Dr. Kristen Brumleve of PM Pediatrics Cobble Hill and Dr. Sonia Patel from PM Pediatrics in Bensonhurst. Participants explored emergency scenarios and practiced what to say and do in an emergency situation. The hands-on portion of the workshop involved exploring first aid supplies and learning how to take care of a cut/scrape. Each participant then put together their own basic first aid kit.

As part of our workshop discussion, we recommend all families engage in discussing the following:
- What is your fire and/or emergency situation plan?
- What is/are the phone option(s) in your home in case 911 needs to be contacted?
- Does everyone in the household know their address and phone number?

Here it is! The next Science Story Wednesday!

Did you know we have two chickens living in the Lab's backyard? Sweet and Sour are New England chickens who are part of the Lab's local ecology. Young scientists in the Brooklyn Chicken Club spend quality time caring for the hens and learning about their needs.

This week's story is My Life As A Chicken. Bawwwwwwk!

Our planet is amazing and alive! As we transition from summer to fall,  we made observations about our changing planet.

We want to thank you for making 2018 an amazing year of science exploration! Our Annual Report can be viewed online here ​or you can download the document below.
