Between
4 and 12 October Sci-Bono Discovery Centre will host an amazing
holiday programme called The Science Fiction Festival.
The
past decade has seen the impossible and improbable feats and wonders
of science fiction movies and books become a reality in our daily
lives. We can do things today that left us in awe a couple of years
ago. Travelling into space and having all the knowledge of the world
at your fingertips is a reality and no longer just a fantasy meant to
entertain.
Sci-Bono
Discovery Centre will explore this wonderful world during a programme
that will leave all visitors inspired, informed and entertained. Kids
get to make their own alien slime while learning about polymers. After a trip through the cosmos, a
number of programmes await all willing explorers where they can learn about our solar system and also
build their own cosmic kaleidoscopes. The Fiction Busters Science Show
will explain exactly what is fact and what is fiction in the movies
we watch. For schools there will also be science fiction writing
competitions, art expos and exhibitions with amazing prizes to be won
like Kindles.
If
the holiday programme is still not enough to keep kids and parents
alike entertained for hours, there are more than 350 interactive
science exhibits that can also be explored. 'Don’t touch!' are
words that don’t exist at Sci-Bono and visitors are encouraged to
touch, push and wind up the hundreds of exhibits that were built
exactly for that purpose. After hours of fun stimulating young minds,
feeding hungry tummies will be a priority, but that’s easy to do at
the coffee shop offering tasty snacks and light meals.
Some
of the daily programmes are free and included in the entrance price.
