I posted this over at the Youth Services Shout-Out Blog (Wisconsin Library Association’s Youth Services Section blog), but it was so great I had to post here, too!

There’s a discussion on an ALSC listserv about science programs, and Nicole from the Cheshire Library in Connecticut shared her fabulous program:  Gizmos Gadgets and Goo.  Not only is that a terrific title with some great programs associated with it, but Nicole has put together a blog with posts about each program, complete with recipes, video clips, presentation ideas, and more.  AMAZING resource.  Take a peek.
