Many parents strive to keep their kids learning during the summer. This eases the back-to-school transition. At Moody Gardens Pyramid Kids Camps, the learning is fun and kids get to meet creatures from around the world. Camps are designed for kids from three to fourteen and range from half-day camps for the little ones, to sleepovers and all-day programs for the older kids.
On June 9th, three and four-year-olds, accompanied by an adult, will explore topics ranging from feathered friends to frogs. Cost is $17 per child. This camp is from 9-11am.

The Galveston County Historical Museum will open a new exhibit entitled "A City on Stilts: Galveston, 1902-1912" on June 9. The public is invited to the opening reception that evening from 6 to 8 p.m. The museum is located at 2219 Market Street.
The exhibit will feature the photography of Zeva Bradshaw Edworthy (1883-1954). This Kansas native came to Galveston in 1904, at the height of the city's rebuilding period following the 1900 storm. The images show everyday street scenes, people swimming and visiting amusement parks, and the rebuilding efforts going on throughout the city.
The Galveston County Historical Museum is open Monday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Sunday from noon to 4 p.m. After Memorial Day, the hours are extended until 5 p.m. For more information, contact Jodi Wright-Gidley at 409-766-2340.
