Science Time for Tots: Mystery Box Science

Thursday, November 12 from 9:30–10:30 am

Can you figure out what’s hiding inside a box without looking? Our little scientists will put their detective skills to the test with a hands-on Black Box activity! Using their senses, toddlers will shake, tilt, turn and listen to mystery boxes to collect clues about what might be inside. Then, they’ll explore a selection of objects and use their observations to make their best guesses!

It’s a fun way to practise problem-solving, explore cause and effect, and discover how scientists use clues and evidence to learn about things they can’t see. Can you solve the mystery?

Complimentary Caliber Coffee is included for adults and caregivers.
