A four week program for young scientists aged 6 to 8 years presented by the Children’s Discovery Museum. Participants will be able to learn and explore themes from different branches of science through numerous practical experiments.

Session 1: Six Bricks

In this workshop we test your memory, dexterity, creativity, problem solving and communication skills using only six LEGO® DUPLO® bricks. How do you stack up?

Session 2: Moon Adventures

Explore the forces we live with here on Earth and put your critical thinking skills to the test to predict if they would act in the same way or even exist on the moon.

Monday 28 October, 4.30pm-5.30pm

Session 3: Bottled Planet

Dive into the science of life cycles by creating your own bottled planet aquarium with living plants and animals (algae and brine shrimp) to take home.

Session 4: Quake and Shake

Experience mother nature at its best… and worst by constructing your own working model volcano and testing structures on our earthquake platform.
