Looking for family-friendly science activities?
With over 50 science booths, our volunteers are excited to show kids the magic of science. But they also secretly hope to see the spark of curiosity and delight on adults’ faces, too. Whether you are bringing kids or coming alone, we have something for you, and we are excited to see you there!

This year’s theme is Wonder!
We invite you to fuel your curiosity and look through our telescopes to view the sun. Learn more about polar bears at the “Polar Bears on Thin Ice” booth. Challenge yourself to code and move a pre-built robot arm. Use small solar panels to light up little lights and sound buzzers. And so much more!
Ready to get your hands dirty?
Trap a person inside a giant bubble made of soap, water and glycerin. Run fast over our popular oobleck pool and don’t stop, or you will sink (up to your ankles)! Use plastic spoons to catch and release various critters from Oak Hammock Marsh.
Live science shows
This year we are bringing back our popular Chemistry Show, Physics Show, Planetarium Shows and an exciting new show by the Prairie Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre!
