Learn 3D Modeling in the DICE club

Have you ever wanted to learn how to design and print objects using a 3D printer? Now is the perfect time to learn. The library is launching a club for kids in grades 3-7 to do just that: the DICE Club! In the DICE Club, short for Design, Innovate, Create, Educate. In the DICE club, our amazing teen volunteer Aditya will teach children how to use the free online software Tinkercad to design their own 3D models that they can later print using the library's brand new 3D printer.

DIY Crafts: Newspaper Seed Planters

Now that it is spring, it is a perfect time to start a garden and we have created a video to show you how to make a newspaper seed planter. Not only is this a great way to upcycle old newspaper but once your seeds have sprouted, you can put the entire newspaper planter into the ground or transfer it to a larger pot and it will simply decompose as your plant grows through the summer.
