Super Minds: May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and we are doing an activity for a mindful moment! We are going to make sensory power wands with different textures because even superheroes need a peaceful moment. After you complete it, give your power wand a shake to see the colors, watch the charms move and take a deep, calming breath.

Super Senses: Super Senses are here to save the day! Join us this week to explore the five senses and how we use them every day. Test your super smell to try and tell the difference between two scents and sort different items to see how they connect to each of the five senses.  

May 26 – May 31

Super Villains: Ever wanted to learn about super villains? Well, this week at DPKH we are going to meet real life villains called Germs! During the activity, we will learn how germs spread, how they affect our bodies, and ways to stay healthy! Then you’ll get to create your own germ supervillain.
