LONGMONT MUSEUM
*************************
Dear Longmont,
We have been so happy to see so many returning families, as well as new families joining us for Discovery Days art, music, and movement classes! Let's see what is coming up next!

About Discovery Days
- Ages 2–6 with an adult
- $4 for each child member, $4.50 for each child non-member
- Attend a session that fits your schedule — no registration needed
Discovery Days is an early childhood program that encourages children ages 2 to 6 and their caregivers to engage together in educational, hands-on art, music, and movement activities. When you attend Discovery Days with your child, you help them cultivate important school-readiness skills, such as language development, attention, concentration, fine motor skills, emotional regulation, and play and social abilities.

- 9–10:15 a.m., 10:30–11:45 a.m., 12:30–1:45 p.m.
