LET THE GOOD TIMES ROLL!
Aspiring scientists and engineers, discover velocity, gravity, acceleration and friction in the ups and downs, ins and outs of playful experimentation with golf balls in the Motion Madness, Fun with Physics exhibit! Several of the exhibit’s interactive activities are inspired by centuries-old experiments conducted by Newton and Galileo to study objects in motion.
Feel inspired? Get your hands on the Fabrication Station to tinker, build and test your own structures or race car ramps. Your imagination is the limit!
You’ll find plenty of bits and pieces to tinker with, make things and try them out. Build your design using real hardware like pegboard wall or PVC pipes. New ideas coming this summer!
FUN TIPS FOR YOUR NEXT TRIP
First, visit the Art Studio and sketch out your design. Then, use your drawings to build and test your design at the Fabrication Station.
Enjoy a friendly family competition of the “Hit the Bucket” game to test hand-eye coordination. Practice math while keeping score. Who will get the “Eagle Eye” title in your family this week?
ABOUT THE EXHIBIT
The Science Hall exhibits challenge skill and judgment through scientific experimentation. They help children build creative problem-solving and critical thinking competence, as well as practice motor skills. Motion Madness is recommended for ages: 2 – 102! Fabrication Station is recommended for ages: 4 & up.
The Science Hall Exhibits Were Made Possible Thanks to the Generous Support of:
ACE Hardware – Fabrication Station
Diane Crowder & Family – Motion Madness, Fun with Physics
