Children have a natural talent for asking the questions adults forget to ask. Why does sound travel? How can music come from a cardboard tube? What secrets are hidden inside ordinary things?

At Listowel Writers’ Week, Dr Shane Bergin invites young experimenters aged 6 to 8 into a world where science begins with curiosity, play, and a little imagination.

Inspired by The Experimenters: Luke and Ruby’s Scientific Sleepover, this hands-on workshop at Listowel Library will see children building musical instruments from recycled materials and helping solve a science mystery along the way.

Dr Bergin brings science down from the laboratory shelf and places it firmly in children’s hands. No white coats required. Just curiosity.

Saturday 30 May
10.30am
Listowel Library
Age 6–8

Free event. Booking essential. Limited to 30 participants.

Parent or carer must accompany children for sign-in.
