Mini-Me Science
Join Frost Science February 12 for the latest edition of the museum’s Mini-Me Science program, developed for children aged two to five years. In Mini-Me Science: Loving Hands, children will explore the freezing and melting points of water through a tactile sensory activity; learn to use tools, such as a pipette, to melt a special piece of ice; and explore the wonders of water.
In Mini-Me Science: Radiant Rainbows March 12, children will learn the science behind rainbows through a hands-on luminescent experience. They will use colorful tools and methods to make rainbows, while exploring the light waves that create them. Register for the morning or afternoon session.
Mini-Me Science sessions last approximately 60 minutes, with a 30-minute hands-on activity, followed by a 30-minute guided museum exploration. All children must be accompanied by an adult (maximum of two adults per child). The sessions take place from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m. and from 1 to 2 p.m. Registration is required and is $25 per child.
