Preschoolers "Mix-It-Up" at Port Discover’s Toddler Time, October 15

Elizabeth City, NC — Children will discover different states of matter—liquids, solids, solutions and mixtures—during Port Discover’s Toddler Time, Mix-It-Up, Thursday, October 15 at 10:00 am. The young scientists will learn why measurements are important in science and will put these skills into practice as they make their own bath salts to take home.

Toddler Time is a science program just for preschoolers, ages 3 – 5. Cost for the program is $5 per family and reservations are required. Parents or guardians must accompany the child.

Port Discover is located at 613 East Main Street, Elizabeth City. Port Discover’s hours are Tuesday through Saturday, 1:00 pm – 5:00 pm. Programs can be arranged at other times for special groups. For more information call 252-338-6117 or www.portdiscover.org.

Port Discover is a community-based, non-profit organization, established to enhance the public’s understanding and enjoyment of science through engaging programs, activities, and exhibits. Elizabeth City State University along with the Elizabeth City Area Chamber of Commerce initiated the project that has attracted broad community support, including Elizabeth City Morning Rotary, College of the Albemarle, Albemarle Hospital, Museum of the Albemarle, Elizabeth City Area Convention and Visitors Bureau, and Elizabeth City-Pasquotank Public Schools.
