Join us at Windmill Island Gardens for the return of our children’s summer series, Books and Blooms! Every Monday from June 15 through August 10, our friends from the Herrick District Library will kick off each Books and Blooms with a story time starting at 10:00 am followed by a fun hands-on activity lead by community partners starting at 10:30 am. Books and Blooms are free for all to attend! Just mention the event at the admission booth to join in on the fun. Books and Blooms will take place outside in the grass on the east side of the Posthouse. A parent/guardian must remain present at all times.

Aqua Tots Swim School – Scoop and Splash & Under the Sea Bookmarks: This is a hands-on activity where kids use cups and scoops to pour, splash, and play in water that is held in mini-inflatable pools. There will be fun mini challenges like moving water from one bucket to the next and scoop up as many ducks as you can in 5 seconds. For those who don't want to play in water, there will also be a create your own under the sea bookmark station!
