If you were a seed, how would you travel? Carried by the wind? Floating in the water? On the back of a furry bear? Join a Hitchcock Center educator as we read about the sneaky ways many seeds hitch a ride to far-off places. Then engineer your own seed pod out of common materials and put it to the test: How far does it fly through the air? Then we'll visit with a live creature who carries seeds long distances in its belly, and plants them in new locations! Best for kids ages 5-10 with an adult.
