Theme
Weekends
Join ECHO Staff and Volunteers on Saturdays and Sundays
throughout the school year for a series of science
theme weekends. Science experiments, crafts, games and
stories may all be included in the daily weekends
schedule, focusing on a specific science theme.Each theme weekend is different. Drop a maple seed "helicopter"
from our mezzanine, walk like a bobcat, or paint on snow. Each
day offers a variety of hands-on activities, demonstrations, and
science experiments. Join us for themes such as animal signs,
maple sugaring, and much, much more. Please check our
Events Calendar for specific dates and times.

Wacky Wednesdays
During our summer months, join ECHO Staff and Volunteers for the
wackiest of Wednesdays! You may find us creating egg-dropping
contraptions, designing boats that don't sink (or sometimes
do!), and even making mud-flinging catapults. These activities
are appropriate for ages 8 and up, and are designed to engage
the brain, move the body, and put ideas into action.Please check our Events Calendar for
specific dates and times.
Movie Shorts
|
 |
| Usually science-themed, our Movie Shorts offer guests an
opportunity to learn about an aspect of science as it relates to
our changing exhibit or to general science-based topics. For
15-30 minutes you'll have the opportunity to learn, while
relaxing for a bit in a quiet space. Check with the Front Desk
on the day of your visit for specific titles and times. |
