Fun, interactive activity stations for small hands and bodies!
Rocket & Vehicle Launcher
Launch your handmade rocket 15 feet into the sky with a hand-cranked air pressure contraption. New for 2023, use the same hand-cranked air pressure contraption to launch a vehicle down a 10 ft track!
Rocket Building & Tinkering
Design, build, and decorate a rocket from recycled materials. Test how high it launches in the new rocket launcher. Decide if your make-and-keep rocket needs anything added to it or taken away. A fun design activity!
WaterWorks
Playing with water is a learning opportunity! Explore boats, funnels, buckets, and streams to learn about the properties of water, and just have fun!
Boat Making & Tinkering
Build a boat using the recycled materials provided. See if it sails at our nearby water table. If the boat won’t float, tinker with it and try again. The boat’s yours to keep!
Art, STEM, and Making Stations
Create art and engage in maker activities with a wide range of materials that encourage “process” not “product” learning. STEM experiments also help children learn basic science and math concepts. An art making table for 2-yr-olds and younger is new for 2023.
Paintable Wall
Imagine an entire mural created by children on our giant paintable wall. Nontoxic washable paint.
Ball Run
Design your very own ball run with endless combinations of tubes and gutters on our giant magnetic wall!
Imagination Playground Blocks
Build a fort, ball ramps, or anything you can imagine with Imagination Playground’s big foam blocks. This is a great activity for making new friends as you build together.
Baby Ball Pit
Just for the littlest ones — a waterless pool filled with multi-colored plastic balls. Lots of giggles.
