Feel the invisible force of air come to life at our captivating Wind & Air wall! Young scientists are invited to explore the fascinating world of wind power through playful discovery and hands-on experimentation.

At our interactive Wind Tunnels, children unleash their curiosity as they send colorful scarves swirling, twisting, and dancing through powerful air currents. Watch their faces light up with wonder as they observe how different objects behave when caught in the rush of moving air!

Little hands eagerly grasp the fundamental principles of physics while little minds formulate questions and seek answers through repeated experimentation. "What happens if I use two scarves at once?" "Why does this one fly higher than that one?"

The Wind & Air exhibit creates the perfect environment for children to develop scientific thinking skills while experiencing the pure joy of discovery. It's learning through play at its most exhilarating!
