Habitot Mobile Museum Exhibits Description:
Rocket Launcher
Launch your handmade rocket 15ft into the sky with a hand-cranked air pressure contraption.
Rocket Building
Design, build, and decorate a rocket from recycled materials. Test how it high it launches in the new rocket launcher. Decide if your make-and-keep needs anything added to it or taken away. A fun design activity!
Giant Paintable Wall
Imagine an entire mural created by children on our giant paintable wall. Nontoxic washable paint.
WaterWorks
Playing with water is a learning opportunity! Explore boats, funnels, buckets, and streams to learn about the properties of water, and just have fun!
Boat Making & Tinkering
Design, build, and decorate a boat from recycled materials. Test how it floats and sails in the water table. Decide if your make-and-keep boat needs anything added to it or taken away. A fun design activity!
Art Stations
Create art that encourage "process" and not "product" learning.
Magnetic Ball Run
Design your very own ball run with endless combinations of tubes, gutters, and more on our giant magnetic wall!
Imagination Playground Blocks
Build a fort, ball ramps, or anything you can imagine with Imagination Playground’s big foam blocks. This is a great activity for making new friends as you build together.
Baby Ball Pit
Just for the littlest ones — a waterless pool filled with multi-colored plastic balls. Lots of giggles
