“Arrive fifteen minutes early to secure a spot in the library parking lot.”
Marbles Science Solvers is a free, drop-in STEM program hosted by Marbles Kids Museum educators at the public library in Apex. Children can explore science concepts through interactive building challenges, creative experiments, and guided play designed for early childhood development. This event is designed specifically for children ages two to eight and their caregivers. It is entirely free to attend, and you do not need a library card or museum membership to participate. The Eva Perry Regional Library has a dedicated free parking lot, but spaces can fill up quickly on Saturday afternoons, so plan to arrive a few minutes early. This program is an excellent weekend option because it brings the high-quality educational play of downtown Raleigh's Marbles Kids Museum directly to western Wake County. It offers a structured, indoor activity to keep young minds active without the drive or the admission fee of a museum trip.

Nothing but the kids — this one's free, with no tickets to buy.
Last year's free and reduced-price meal benefits do not roll over — they expire on a date set by your child's WCPSS calendar, and traditional-calendar families have until October 6, 2026. A Raleigh mom walks through all eight expiration dates, how to apply at any point in the year, the CEP sibling gap that catches families with kids at two schools, and what meals actually cost.
