Halloween Fun and Learning in Knoxville!
This Halloween season, Knoxville is buzzing with excitement as families prepare for a day of **spooky fun** and **educational activities**! On Thursday, the WBIR Weather Impact team is hosting a fun-filled event at the beautiful Sequoyah Hills Park. It’s the perfect opportunity for parents and kids to learn about weather while enjoying some Halloween-themed crafts!
What’s Happening at Sequoyah Hills Park?
Mark your calendars for **October 31st**, where the action kicks off at **4 p.m.** Join the enthusiastic WBIR Weather Impact team for the Halloween Weather Education Day! Imagine your little ones learning about weather phenomena like rain, snow, and wind while having an absolute blast!
The event will take place on the **western side of Sequoyah Hills Park**, conveniently located near the bath house, which means easy access for families. So, grab your little ghosts and goblins, and come on down!
Activities and Crafts to Look Forward To
Aside from the fun that comes with Halloween costumes and trick-or-treating, this event offers various engaging activities that blend education with creativity. Here are a few crafts and experiments that you and your kids can look forward to:
- Weather Wizards: Kids will get a chance to create their very own weather wands. Using simple materials, they can make wands that represent different weather conditions, such as sunny, rainy, or snowy!
- Spooky Snow Clouds: Using cotton balls and blue construction paper, children will recreate fluffy snow clouds. This activity is not only fun but educational, as it teaches kids about how clouds form and the science behind precipitation.
- DIY Weather Barometer: Kids can craft their very own barometer to learn about air pressure. Using a jar, balloon, and straw, this hands-on activity will help children observe changes in air pressure and how it relates to the weather!
Bringing the Family Together
Families are encouraged to bring a picnic blanket, some snacks, and a healthy dose of curiosity. Not only will kids have the chance to *learn* about weather patterns, but they will also engage in spirited conversations with other families and make new friends in the community. It’s a *fantastic chance* to bond and create lasting memories!
Even if you can’t physically make it to the park, don’t fret! You can still join in on the fun. The event will be broadcast live during the show titled **10 About Town**, allowing families to take part from the comfort of their own homes. So, gather around the television and enjoy the crafts and activities together!
