Bambini Ball

Put on your dancing shoes and your party clothes. The Goat on a Boat Puppet Theatre’s Bambini Ball is on Saturday from 3 to 5 p.m. The fun will include music by D.J. Carlos Lama, snacks, puppet shows, and games.

The ball helps the nonprofit bring puppeteers and performers such as Gustafer Yellowgold, Chinese Theatre Works, and Randy Kaplan to its Sag Harbor space. Tickets cost $30 for adults and $10 for kids. They can be reserved in advance at goatonaboat.org.

 

For Little Foodies

Young foodies of all ages can learn how food is grown in the aquaponic garden at Page at 63 Main in Sag Harbor on March 28 from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. The free event will also feature a cooking demonstration and tasting as well as a discussion of healthy food choices.

Those who plan to attend have been asked to email [email protected] to reserve a place in advance.

 

It Glows

Kids 3 to 6 will use household ingredients and a few extras to make their own glow-in-the-dark bouncy balls on Saturday at 10 a.m. at the Children’s Museum of the East End in Bridgehampton. The class costs $24 including museum admission, or $10 for members of the museum.

 

Science and Nature

The South Fork Natural History Museum will offer kids in kindergarten through sixth grade a close-up introduction to reptiles and amphibians of the area on Tuesday at the East Hampton Library. The program runs from 4 to 5 p.m.

Next Thursday at the library, children 5 and older can make their own fossils while learning the basics of paleontology from 4 to 5 p.m. Tonight from 5 to 7, the library will screen “The Lorax” for families.

 

Think Spring

The snow may be hanging around, but now is the time to think spring, especially if you’re planting carrots. On Saturday, the Amagansett Library will help welcome spring with a carrot story and seed-planting time at 3:30 p.m.

On Sunday at 2 p.m. kids in third through sixth grades will make book pillows using recycled fabric. Kids in prekindergarten through third grade can drop by the library for some crafting today at 3 p.m.

The time changed a week and a half ago, spring arrives this weekend, and Easter will be here before you know it. Some major egg decorating will go down at the Montauk Library on Saturday from 2 to 3:30 p.m. The library will have dye, stickers, and more on hand, but you may want to take your own smock.

 

Pizza and a Movie

The Hampton Library in Bridgehampton will screen “Guardians of the Galaxy” for ages 12 and up tomorrow at 7 p.m. Pizza will be served.
