Cool Moves - Artistry of Motion

Sport Moves

Cool Moves: the Artistry of Motion features over a dozen fun, interactive kids activities which allow you to discover the beauty in motion all around us.  It debuts Sept. 19, 2009 through Jan. 24, 2010 at the Children's Museum of Houston.
 
Through hands-on experimentation, each interactive exhibit explores how motion in many things can be characterized by simple types: translation vs. rotation, continuous vs. vibrating, and predictable vs. unpredictable.

Houston's Coolest Place for Interactive Moves

Included in Cool Moves: the Artistry of Motion are fun activities like, moving in front of a light censured Dancing Wall and creating a dazzling show of colors and music with the motion of your body.  You can also experiment with wave patterns in activities like the Ripple Tank and Wind over Water. Learn how the environment and movement work hand-in-hand.  See animals swim, fly, jump, and crawl in the most bizarre and breathtaking ways as you learn at Animals in Motion.
