“Arrive fifteen minutes early to secure a parking spot in the library lot.”
Marbles Science Solvers is a free, hands-on STEM program hosted by Marbles Kids Museum staff at the local public library. Kids can build, test, and experiment through interactive play stations designed to spark curiosity about how things work. This afternoon session is designed specifically for children ages two to eight and their caregivers. Because the event is free and held at a Wake County library branch, you do not need a museum ticket to participate. Parking is available in the library lot, and you do not need to bring any supplies, as all building materials are provided. It is an easy, low-stress weekend activity that gets kids out of the house and learning without requiring a trip downtown. You can easily pair the science activities with a quick trip to the book stacks to pick out your weekly reading.
