Do you know a curious kid? You know, the one that always asks the why? what? and how? behind everyday things. SciTech Saturdays are here to satisfy some of their curiosity.
In honor of National Robotics Week, we’ll using LEGO to demonstrate the importance of details when programming robots. This activity is sure to be educational (shhhh) and fun! All ages are welcome. Parents should plan to join in the fun.
For Spring Break fun, this activity will be available all day in our Rotunda.
Free with museum admission.
