There are activities for the whole family at the Science Open House taking place at the University of Waterloo this weekend.
A chemistry magic show, gold panning and exploring a giant cell are just some of the fun hands-on activities for the whole family at the Science Open House taking place at the University of Waterloo this weekend.
Also among the activities and demonstrations for children aged 5 to 13 are dry-ice experiments, digging for fossils, making a marble roller-coaster and adding science to Hallowe'en tricks. The Gem & Mineral show will add to the excitement with mineral and gem vendors’ spectacular collections for sale.
"This popular event is a great way for kids to discover the fascinating and varied world of science in a memorable and exciting way," said Heather Neufeld, outreach coordinator for the Faculty of Science at Waterloo.
