Experiencing nature is science education! Children will forget a worksheet, however they will not forget a first hand experience guided by their own interests and their own curiosities! Get outside this summer, play in the dirt, and have a secret science moment...
The Seacoast Science Center:
There is something for learners of ALL ages! Exhibits, outdoor adventures, nature tours, day camps and a cool concert series are just the beginning of the cool things happening!
