What floats and what sinks? Let’s find out together!

Perfect for children ages 5 and under, this playful hands-on STEM activity invites young explorers

to test everyday objects in floating boats and observe what makes them sink.

Inspired by the classic story Who Sank the Boat? by Pamela Allen, children and their grown-ups will giggle, guess, and investigate

through water-based experiments that spark curiosity, build language, and encourage discovery.

Purchase museum admission tickets for the family,

and then add our Float the Boat workshop for an additional $6 per child ages 5 and under!

(There is no charge for museum access for our guests that are 2 and under, but they will need a ticket for the workshop.)

Ticket includes Early Bird access to the museum from 9:30-10:00am!
