The official decree from Unicorn Council: it was a fab day at Unicorn Club. We found out the unicorns are still learning how to write and spell but their snuggle and reading game is strong. They shared their tips for calming down (unicorns can get really wound up), and they got their official names today. What would your unicorn name be?

Lights. Camera. Action! πŸŽ₯🍿🎬

Our Movie Magic Pop-up camp scientists walked the rainbow carpet into our bookstore-embedded lab, then explored popcorn science -learning why popcorn pops and how carbonation can make popcorn kernels dance! They decorated their own popcorn bin, piled up the gooey goodness with a hot chocolate bar, and snuggled in to watch a movie with their new friends. The cozy vibes at @high_five_books were perfect for this winter fun! We ended the afternoon with a little dramatic play with a REAL clapboard and kid-directed movie scenes. Thanks to our buds at High Five for hosting us and our buds at @a2zscience for some fun props! We sure do love joyful learning. πŸ’•πŸŒˆ
