Stage Shows
Located in the auditorium.
Liquid Nitrogen Show
Get ready for a super-cool science show! Kids will discover liquid nitrogen—a “cosmic” substance that can freeze things in seconds! We’ll freeze everyday objects, squeeze a 2-foot string balloon into a coffee mug, watch balloons inflate by themselves, and play with static electricity. Along the way, kids will learn about gravity and the invisible forces that make our world work!
Dry Ice Show
Get ready for hands-on science fun! Kids will explore dry ice—a super-cool solid that turns straight into gas—while making foggy effects and exciting discoveries. We’ll create snow that never melts, test a magic polymer that soaks up tons of water, split light into rainbow colors, and make tornadoes and whirlpools right in the classroom. Along the way, kids will learn about air pressure, sound, and how moving air molecules make vibrations we can hear!
