Idea Factory

Set inside Griffin MSI, this family research gallery turns physics into tangible trial and error. Workspaces invite children to explore theories of construction, simple machines, light, and magnetism. Young investigators can test toy truck speeds on differently shaped roads or observe weight distributions by lifting heavier shapes. For wet physics, the room centers on the Water Spectacle, a hydrodynamic playset for spraying, splashing, and floating objects, with rain slickers provided to keep clothes dry.
