Nature Lab

This exhibit includes the Tabletop Magnifiers, Sound Matching Game, and Sketch and Release.

Budding scientists can observe, investigate, and discover the wonders of the natural world through hands-on exploration in the Nature Lab. Children are encouraged to examine specimens up close with magnifiers, match the sounds of local wildlife, and sketch what they find before releasing their discoveries back into nature. Every experience inspires curiosity, careful observation, and a deeper appreciation for the world around them.
