Family Night: Science & Nature
Explore the wonders of science, math, and the natural world with this engaging, interactive program designed for your whole school. Students and their families can dive into the states of matter while making slime, push and pull their way to understanding forces and simple machines, study how animals adapt to their habitat, and much more as they explore 15 different STEM activities. In addition, in partnership with our sister organization, the Leslie Science and Nature Center, we’ll deliver live animal presentations where students can observe wildlife and interact with specimens such as shells and feathers.
Educators and families love this casual, self-directed evening of fun activities. All activities are linked to the Michigan Science Standards. Open house format encourages leisurely family exploration.
