Wind Tube Mad Science

Science comes alive for preschoolers ages 3 to 5 and their families on Monday, June 3, at 2:00 p.m., as the good people at FutureMakers bring kids a wacky, exciting wind tube experience. Use a variety of materials to create and experiment ...with build-it-yourself flying machines, and watch them go in the wind tubes! This is a free program, but tickets and parent supervision at the event are required. Call 410-228-7331 for details.
