Preschoolers in the Park: Tools

Calling all Toddlers, Tots, and Preschoolers ages 2-6! The rangers at Saugus Ironworks National Historic Site invite you to attend free monthly Storytime and activity sessions around the park! Bring your favorite adult and learn about the special places, objects, living things and stories the National Park Service protects. Create crafts to take home each time and receive a special prize for attending all six sessions! No reservations required. Meet at the Saugus Ironworks Visitor Center (244 Central St., Saugus). Discover what kinds of tools were used and made at the ironworks. See a water wheel in action as it powers one of our largest tools—the bellows! Then, use modelling clay tools to make your own “iron” creations to take home. We will be reading "Tap Tap Bang Bang" by Emma Garcia.
