Cup-and-Ball was all the rage in the early 1800s, and kids (Ages 2-5) will get to try out this fiendish game of skill at the library with a costumed museum educator from the Genesee Country Village & Museum on Wednesday, April 15, at 10:30 AM.
Genesee Country Village & Museum Presents 19th Century Games will also introduce kids to Jackstraws, the Whimmy-Diddle, Buzz Saw, and much more. Those who like a challenge can try to identify the strategies involved in each game and the physics principles that underlie each toy.
If you’d like to attend this program, please register now through our Event Calendar.
