Professor Ray’s Everyday Science

Good Vibrations
1pm and 3pm

We’ll have a great time experimenting with vibrations, the sources of sounds. We’ll hear strange sounds made with common objects and learn how to make cool sounds at home. Ever seen sound extinguish a flame? You will here!

Going Buggy
Hands-on activities 10am – 4pm

Buzz in for an exploration of the world of insects. Dance like a bee, take a look through compound eyes, and discover whether crickets can tell you the temperature. Leslie Science and Nature Center will be bringing live insects!

Mind Over Matter
1pm and 3pm

Solids and liquids and gases — we’ll explore these three states of matter in all sorts of crazy ways. We’ll see gas in solid form, watch as liquid expands 700 hundred times to produce explosive consequences, and figure out how cold matter can get.

All About Ancient Cultures
Hands-on activities 10am – 4pm

Come learn about the people who lived long ago. Draw hieroglyphics on real papyrus, learn to add with an abacus, and participate in a simulated archeological dig with the Kelsey Museum of Archeology.

Air Apparent
1pm and 3pm

We’ll explore principles relating to air pressure and apply them in all sorts of interesting ways, from crushing a can to levitating objects.

Mighty Motion
1pm and 3pm

Ever wonder why and how objects move… or do not move? We will demonstrate gravity, inertia, air resistance and Newton’s laws of motion in many ways, including launching a tray of eggs with a broom — safely!

Chem Mystery
1pm and 3pm

Items found in your pantry, refrigerator or under your sink that seem so common are chemicals. See items in your salad produce real chemical reactions and see whether water really can explode.
