The BrainKids Lab, alongside other child health and wellness labs, had the pleasure of taking part in the Owerko Community Connections Event!

We had such a great time making brain hats with the kids and teaching them how different areas of the brain are involved in different functions. Seeing everyone walking around proudly wearing their very own “brains” was definitely one of our favourite parts of the day! 🧠✨

Missed us this time? We’re excited to be back for Brain Day on October 10th at the Central Library from 12–4 PM! Come by, say hi, and make more brain hats with us! We hope to see you there!
