Event Details

In honor of the upcoming "bird presidential elections" at BPL, in this video episode of Science Bytes, Miss Nicole will show viewers how to make a paper version of the classic "balancing bird" trick.

The YouTube video with instructions will first be available on Monday, November 4, 2024.  The video can be viewing by going to the Science Bytes playlist on BPL's YouTube page by clicking HERE, or you can click on the link below to go directly to the specific YouTube video:

Kits with a template for the project can be picked up at our Atrium location, while supplies last. Or, you can find each template for free download online (see below). I do recommend printing each template on thicker/cardstock paper.
