SUMMARY:February Homeschool Days: Food Science
DESCRIPTION:Food Science \nChemistry never tasted so good! In this interactive program\, students explore the science behind everyday foods by experimenting with acid-base reactions\, pH\, polymers\, and freezing point depression. \nActivities include: \nCreating fizzy reactions and jelly-based treats\, \nFormulating a custom carbonated drink\, \nUsing sodium chloride to lower the freezing point of ice and freeze a single serving of nondairy instant creamer \nStudents will see how small changes in chemistry can lead to surprising (and tasty!) results. Take-home recipes are included so learning can continue at home. \n⚠️ This program includes food preparation and sampling. Families should be aware of food allergies or sensitivities. \n$25.00/per participant \nEvery Third Thursday\, \nMorning session 9:30 – 11:00 am \nAfternoon session 1:00-2:30 pm \nRegister here: https://imaginescience.wufoo.com/forms/homeschool-days-spring-2026/ \nRegistration required. An adult must remain with students under age 14 throughout the program. Parents receive complimentary admission when accompanying a paid registrant for Homeschool Days. In the event of additional visitors aged 3 and above\, regular admission fee of $6 will apply. Doors will open at 9:15am for morning sessions. \n*If you have any questions about Homeschool Days please email the education department\, education@imaginescience.org or contact the museum (252) 291-5113 ext 3. \n_______________________________________________________________________ \n🍽️ Mix\, fizz\, and taste your way through the chemistry behind everyday foods.

SUMMARY:Preschool Science Says: Shadows & Light
DESCRIPTION:Shadows stretch\, shrink\, and dance in the light. We’ll explore how light moves\, how shadows form\, and how they can change shape and size. \nPreschool Science Says is a FREE\, interactive program designed to build interest and skills in science and literacy for children ages 3-5\, that integrates open-ended science activities with children’s books for young children to learn and explore. \nPlease register online:\nhttps://imaginescience.wufoo.com/forms/2026-feb-preschool-science-says-shadows-light/

SUMMARY:Fabulous Friday: Light and Shadow
DESCRIPTION:Step into the glow after hours and explore the science of light and shadow! Join us at the museum after hours from 5–7 PM with hands-on activity tables spread throughout the main exhibit floor. \nExperiment with flashlights\, mirrors\, prisms\, colored lenses\, and shadow-casting  as you discover how light moves\, bends\, reflects\, and transforms the world around us. Create dramatic shadows\, explore how objects change when light hits them from different angles\, and bring the world to life with shadow puppets. \nFrom dazzling reflections to mysterious silhouettes\, this interactive evening invites curious minds of all ages to investigate how light and shadow work—and how they’re used in the real world. \nFREE ADMISSION

SUMMARY:January Homeschool Days: Decomposers
DESCRIPTION:Decomposers: Life in a Rotting Log – dissection \nWhat’s happening beneath our feet on the forest floor? Students explore the fascinating world of decomposers by examining a real rotting log ecosystem. They’ll observe a variety of organisms—such as redworms\, millipedes\, beetles\, mosses\, and fungi—and learn how each plays an important role in breaking down organic matter and recycling nutrients back into the environment. \nThe program concludes with a hands-on earthworm dissection\, allowing students to investigate internal structures and better understand how decomposers function within an ecosystem. \n$18.00/per participant \nEvery Third Thursday\, \nMorning session 9:30 – 11:00 am \nAfternoon session 1:00-2:30 pm \nRegister here: https://imaginescience.wufoo.com/forms/homeschool-days-spring-2026/ \nRegistration required.
