Children love the chance to watch and touch living creatures, and this is the place to do it. Discovery space has it's own small menagerie of animals for children to experience up close. It may be our Walking Sticks from Malaysia and Australia, Zebra Finches, or a tank of fish that young visitors can learn about. We think that water play is a great way for children to experience learning. They can strain, pour, pump, and make bubbles and float objects.
Water is an amazing tool for understanding measurement, the weather, and buoyancy.
We offer all the toys a child needs for exploring water. Our lab wouldn't be complete without it. The activities involve creating, changing and observing movement with balls, pulleys, inclines. Other activities available are assorted building blocks and the Bernoulli Blower, that lifts balls and other objects varying in weight and the air tube propels balls up and into a basket, allowing children to watch the ball descend. Even the youngest visitors need a place of their own.
