Day 1
DISCOVER DETECTION: Step into the shoes of a detective, uncover the science involved in evidence-gathering and analysis. Using the power of observation and the Inspection-Kit, our young detectives will have all they need to get started with their investigations. Children use the gear in their kit to find, collect, and analyze evidence. Then they will explore fingerprint analysis and use the Fingerprint Finder to place and identify UV prints.
Day 2
SCIENCE OF SECURITY: Sharpen your surveillance skills with the science of security! Children discover the science and technology behind locks, surveillance systems and burglar alarms! They will use Spyglasses to test their observational abilities. Then, they will put their security skills to the test by building their very own Secret Safe and challenging friends to crack the code!
Day 3
SLEUTHS ON THE SCENE: Suspects, schematics, and sleuths… oh my! Connect the dots using science to help solve a crime in this hands-on investigation into the science of sleuthing. Children will use the Scene Solver to reconstruct the scene of a crime. With the Whodunit-Kit, they can practice their skills of recall and observation—matching character descriptions to reconstruct the face of the culprit!
Day 4
SPY ACADEMY: Calling all agents—the Mad Science Spy Academy is in session! From metal detectors to night vision, children will have the opportunity to check out spy gadgets and techniques. They will use the Secret Code Breaker to communicate in code, like real spies. With the Undercover Observer, children step into the shoes of a spy. What looks like an ordinary camera is a sneaky surveillance device that uses the science of optics.
