During the CUR conference, children from 6-14 years are invited to participate in all-day activities through the CUR Kids program. Sports, art projects, musical adventures and scientific exploration will take the CUR Kids all over Weber State University and around the Ogden community. The program is coordinated by a licensed teacher and provides a safe, rich and nurturing environment for children.

Classroom activities, workshops, and field trips will keep CUR Kids busy during the 3.5 day program, Saturday, June 19 - Monday, June 21, 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. and Tuesday June 22, 8:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m. Cost includes lunch and snacks. Sample workshops may include a trip to the WSU Ott Planetarium for a Science Workshop and visiting the WSU Avian Ecology Lab to learn all about birds.
