Activities in Our Open Environments

Create a bee garden
Help us decorate our 'bee garden' wall! Draw the flowers that bees like that are in bloom and add them to the wall. By the end of summer, with your help, the whole wall will bloom with color - and you will know a bit more about what kind of flowers you could have in your own garden to make the bees happy!

Make it Rain in an Augmented Reality Sandbox!
Shape sand into a virtual landscape. A computer with a camera detects the topography and simulates rain and a topographic map image over the sandbox.

Build and Construct
with your imagination and building blocks in different shapes ! How high can you build? What happens when you put a big block on top of a small? 

Stop Motion
Create movies using our theme boxes: The crazy experiment?, What's going on in Space? and Talk with the forest animals.

Play Games and Solve Brain Teasers!
Take your time to figure out a brain teaser, or challenge someone in a game. We have old classics as well as new challenges.
