Experience light and colour through play with a ray box.    Various objects such as prisms and crystals make rainbows and patterns. Come try them out!

Dinosaurs have different characteristics like sharp teeth or a long neck. Colour in a shadow puppet and use the torchlights provided to create a story based on their features.

A thaumatrope consists of a disc with two different images on both sides. When it is rapidly rotated, the two images will appear to combine as one single image. Make and take home one today!
