Step inside Building Zone!

Explore the world of forces and examine the science behind building structures. Plus, take on the role of civil engineer and check out key techniques needed to build sturdy structures!

Building Zone features new hands-on activities that will encourage kids to learn about physics and engineering.

Children will don hard hats as they step into a kid-friendly construction area and take on tasks such as lifting heavy bags of gravel using pulleys and using the earth's gravity to hold up an arch. Plus, they will take on the role of civil engineers by checking out some of the key techniques needed to build structures to protect from high winds or earthquakes.
