Enjoy a fun filled afternoon with your children, grandchildren, nieces and nephews, or any other children in your life.

The afternoon will have many fun and safe demos and activities your children can do on their own or with some help. There will be SLIME, penny polishing, bounce house, magic sand, chemistry projects, snow in September, mentos pop explosions, and much more!
