Dinosaurs, Vision Workshop and YMCA Registration

Here are a few of the things you need to know in and around Larchmont and Mamaroneck for Tuesday, August 27, 2013.

1. There will be two free sessions of dinosaur activities at the Larchmont Public Library Tuesday. Ages 3 to 4 will be at 10:30 a.m., ages 5 and up at 3:30 p.m. There will be dino songs, dino books and dino games to play for the young ones. The older kids will explore dinosaurs and fossils by reading, digging and shifting. The library is at 121 Larchmont Ave. 

2. There is a Vision and Success Workshop scheduled for 7 p.m. Tuesday. As many as 25 percent of children in any classroom have vision problems that keep them from attaining their highest level of success! Vision is an often overlooked component of learning and reading problems. In this workshop you will learn practical tools to identify children who are having trouble with learning due to their use of vision. The event is free and light refreshments served. RSVP to Jane at 845-519-3521. The workshop will be at 161 S. Central Park Ave. in Hartsdale.
