Make and Take Crafts: Morse Code Bracelets
2026-08-19 10:30 - 12:00 | North Carolina
Developed in the mid-1800s, Morse code became a standard form of communication that is still in use today. The code features dots and dashes to convey letters of the alphabet and can be used to hide messages from people who don’t know the code. At this Make and Take session, kids will be able to make a bracelet with a Morse code message on it to take with them.
This craft is best suited for children ages 7 and up. The program is free and open to the public. All supplies are furnished. Registration is not required. Children must be accompanied by an adult.
