## About

Part of Jefferson County Library's Kids Learn series of hour-long educational classes for homeschoolers and other curious kids, this session at the Arnold Branch teaches children how to write and decipher different codes and languages, a hands-on way into patterns, logic and how people send hidden messages. The class is pitched broadly, for ages 5 to 16, and meets on a Monday afternoon in early December, which suits homeschool schedules. Sign-up is required, and the class was already full in late October with a waiting list open, so add your child to the waitlist on the library's event page if they are interested; spots sometimes open up as the date approaches.
