Interactive exploration
Machines & MotionElectric motors
How does electricity make a motor spin?
Power a motor. Reverse its direction. Add a load and watch speed, current and turning force find a new balance.
Interactive explorationBody & HealthThe heart and blood circulation
Where does your blood go after a heartbeat?
Turn a real anatomical model in your hands. Reveal its chambers, meet the four valves, then follow the blood moving through both sides of the heart.
Interactive explorationBody & HealthLungs and breathing
How do your lungs pull in a breath?
Move through a breath, connect space to airflow, then cross the tiny boundary where oxygen enters the blood.
Interactive exploration
Physics, Light & SoundLenses and focusing light
Why does moving a lens bring things into focus?
Slide an object toward a lens. Follow the rays, find a sharp image, and discover the moment a camera becomes a magnifier.
Interactive explorationBrain & SensesHearing and the ear
How does a sound reach your brain?
Start with a vibration. Follow air, eardrum, tiny bones and hair cells, then see why the message reaching your brain is a different kind of signal.
Interactive exploration
Computers, Networks & AIThe internet and data packets
How does a message find its way across the internet?
Send “SMALL IDEAS!” through a network. Delay a piece, lose another, and watch what the receiver can actually use.
Interactive explorationEarth, Weather & ClimateThe water cycle
Where can a drop of rain go next?
Follow water above and below the surface. Pave part of the land, change evaporation, and watch the water budget rearrange.
Interactive exploration
Math, Probability & SystemsProbability and random patterns
How can random choices make a predictable shape?
Release a few virtual balls, then a thousand. Change the chance of a right turn and compare the results with a mathematical prediction.
