Via MyNorth: Toddler Program at Dennos Museum in Travese City

Stories, Scribbles and Wiggles Toddler Program

Thursday, October 29, 2009, 11:00 am – 12:00 pm, Woodland Indian Baskets and Myths
Thursday, November 19, 2009, 11:00 am – 12:00 pm, All that Glitters is Gold

This is a good start. I only hope Dennos Museum expands the offerings to more days in 2010.
