There is way more at the Stoneham Public Library than just books. There are activities through July at the library that aim to both entertain your young ones and bring them some knowledge during summer vacation. 

Check out our list below and head to the Stoneham Public Library website for details on how to register. 

Lego Day
Every Friday in July from 10:30 a.m. to 12 p.m. the library hosts Lego Day, an event that encourages kids ages 5 and older to stop by and play with the library's supply of plastic building bricks. 

Forensic Fun
The library wants to help your child think like a scientist at Forensic Fun, an event that will show participants how to dust for fingerprints, collect DNA, and solve mysteries with science. The event takes place on July 10 from 1-2:30 p.m.

What's the Matter? 
Your child can learn about the different forms of matter at an event at the library on July 10 from 10:30 a.m. to 12 p.m. "What's the Matter" offers a hands-on look at experiments that teach participants about the basic properties of matter. 

Build and Fly an Airplane
Children in grades 3 to 6 are welcomed to the library on July 8 for the chance to design an aircraft from paper and in doing so will learn the physics behind how planes fly. The event runs from 6:30-7:45 p.m.
