Enid, OK — Leonardo’s Children’s Museum is looking for inventors! Friday, September 14, 2018 a new exhibit is coming designed to excite the minds of young Leonardo da Vincis, Stephanie Kwoleks and Nikola Teslas.
-
“‘Kid Inventor is a fun way to inspire children to use their creativity and explore possibilities,” said Executive Director Tracy Bittle. “Kid Inventor,” is developed by the Oklahoma Museum Network and funded by the Donald W. Reynolds Foundation. The new exhibit encourages children to design, test and build unique creations using a variety of materials and technologies.
-
Guests are invited to sketch and shape ideas and then in the build area, the design comes to life: a car, a plane, a monster — and beyond — can be built with materials ranging from Legos to string, paper and straws. Finally, inventors can move to the test area to investigate how their creations react to variables like a wind tube, airstream table, a timed race track or a launch pad.
-
In the exhibit’s “Tech Studio,” guests can brush up on animation skills, practice coding, and try their hands at sound mixing and engineering, and in “Spare Parts,” creators can build from the ground up with only their imaginations to limit them.
-
The new exhibit is free with paid admission. Kid Inventor will be replacing the popular Backyard Bugs, which will be moving out right after Labor Day. For more information look on our website http:/leonardos.org.
