Messy Science Weekends at Museum of Discovery and Science
Sometimes science needs to be precise, but what’s wrong with a little mess along the way? Join us for a messy month filled with slime, mud and an ooey-gooey good time!
• Exhibits, Shows and Demos: Slide into MODS’ Makerspace Science Lab to create your own mud mix and put it under a microscope to discover its contents. Play with all types of slime and find out what makes them stretch, stick and splatter!
• Animal Encounters: Meet our resident animals and learn what we do when they make a mess!
• Watch an IMAX on the GIANT Screen: Dino Dana, Animal Kingdom and more!
• Career Connections: Channel your inner chemist to create sticky concoctions and see how animal handlers deal with animal droppings.
Just for early learners (ages 0-6): Young scientists can discover a property that is both a liquid and solid depending on the force that is used, get hands-on with real peat from the Everglades and feel the difference between various types of slime.
