In a partnership with the Martha Liebert Public Library in Bernalillo, Coronado Historic Site offers a “Ranger Read and Learn” story time that is free and geared toward children ages 3 – 7 years old. Today children will learn about constellations, which are a group of stars that look like they are forming a shape or a picture in the sky. Different people all around the world create different constellations. Listen to the story Coyote and the Sky by Emmett Shkeme Garcia then participate in a constellation memory game. The ranger will also lead a watercolor constellation painting activity. Martha Liebert Public Library is located at 124 Calle Malinche, Bernalillo NM, 87004. The event is free. Families of all ages are welcome!

This program focuses on activities related to different ways people in the ancient past viewed the sky in the daytime and at night. There will be presentations on ancient astronomy, as well as on modern-day astronomy to explain how people of the past interpreted the sky and how modern-day astronomy can tell what is out there. Pending the weather, the presentation will be followed by safe sun observation through two types of solar telescopes. This program is included with admission of $7 for adults and free to children 16 years and younger, NM residents 60 years and older with ID, people with Native/Tribal affiliations, disabled veterans, and foster families.
