About Laura Wales
Has anyone gone to the Girls & Science event before? I’ve been meaning to take my four-year-old — who loves our “Science Play” book — to the Science Museum, but I’m not sure if it’s geared too old for her.
There is also a free event for teens only at the Science Museum 11/11/10 from 7:30 to 9:30 pm. Teens are needed to be an audience for local teen speakers being taped for a Twin Cities TED X event celebrating teens and innovation. The taping is being held in the auditorium at the Science Museum. The actual TED X event will be held at the Science Museum Nov 20th.
