Tinkerfest: Flights of Fancy Nov 27 - Dec 3
During the holiday season from Nov 27 - Dec 3, there will be a Tinkerfest : Flights of Fancy workshops. Specially curated workshops on flights include Make Paper Fly, Spin and Fly, Kite-making, Flying Automata and Egg Drop Challenge.
Can you save the egg
We previewed the Egg Drop Challenge where we have to drop a fragile egg from height and make sure it landed safely.
A real egg was used for this activity. We named it Humpty. Will it survive the fall?
Using an assortment of materials provided, we raced through time to create the perfect capsule for Humpty.
When it is done, it is time for the Egg Drop Challenge. Will our egg survive?
In the end, Humpty suffered like his namesake.
The workshops are recommended for different age groups ranging from 3-10 or 4-10. They can be done as a parent and child combination or just a child . Prices starts at $30 for a parent child combo to $15 for individual child. Price includes any applicable Science Centre admission fees.
