The Poop Museum is coming to our library!

The Poop Museum is the place to come if you’re curious and have questions about poop, and also if, like Susie Maguire, you LOVE poop!

Susie works at The Poop Museum and is a poop expert who thinks poop is THE most interesting subject in the world. She has studied poop for years and loves nothing more than sharing her expansive knowledge of poop with the children of the world.

At The Poop Museum, children learn many fantastic, fabulous and fun facts about human, animal and insect poop, many of which truly amaze and surprise.

Just a few of the poopers the children will meet include:

  • the world’s messiest pooper
  • the animal that has poop attack power
  • the insect that uses poop as protection
  • the animal that can poop every color of the rainbow
  • the insect that cannot poop in the winter
  • the animal that has poop diapers
  • and many, many more!

At The Poop Museum, children learn A LOT, but they also laugh a lot ... because ... well ... our subject is poop and Susie has found a wonderful way to blend solid science, with the silliness that kids love.

Sometimes the children get very lucky and Susie’s boss, Professor Poopoopantous, The World’s Greatest Expert in Poop, also comes to say hi!

Registration is required for this program. Email Meredith at mwfournier@minlib.net with any questions. We look forward to seeing you there!
