We are less than a week away from Halloween and that means we are super excited to share with you some Halloween themed science. We highly encourage you try these at home with your family and friends. Today, we are going to show you some different ways you can make spooky noises using just some materials you probably already have around your house. What does breaking celery sound like? What spooky sound is made using just a plastic cup and string? Check out both of these and more by watching the full Science Sunday segment below.
Calling all you little ghosts ‘n goblins, any kids in costume from October 24 – November 1 will pay only $5 General Admission (with a paid adult admission). Reserve tickets online before your visit.
