A lifelong love affair

The West Palm Beach library is offereing science seminars for kids.

West Palm Beach· The building blocks of science were laid out on the table. Baking soda, vinegar, a two-liter soda bottle, apple juice and Alka-Seltzer tablets. A half-dozen children gathered around in wide-eyed anticipation.

“Everything in your life is science,” ocean scientist Mark Fischer told them. “That makes every one of you a scientist.”

“The key is making science less intimidating for kids,” scientist Trish Fischer said. “Get them interested early so you can create a lifelong love affair with science and how the world works.”
