As part of our town-wide One Book One Watertown program, a representative from the Museum of Science taught school-aged kids all about rockets! He explained how rockets work and gave the kids plenty of opportunities for hands-on exploration.
The kids got to try out their understanding of the concepts they learned using balloons and air to make rockets fly!
