LEAP into Science is a partnership between The Franklin Institute Science Museum and the Free Library of Philadelphia, and collaborating partners nationwide. This project is also made possible by a grant from the U.S. Institute of Museum and Library Services. LEAP into Science is designed to engage children and families in science and literacy learning. The program consists of preschool, afterschool and family workshops that integrate hands-on science activities with relevant children's books, promoting science learning skills and literacy development.
