The museum's lab will offer extended hours from June 15 to Aug. 23. The hours will be 10:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., weekdays and Saturday, and 12:30 p.m. to 4;30 p.m., Sundays. Special summer science shows are scheduled every Wednesday from 12:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. Check the museum's website for the show schedule, which will be updated weekly on its events calendar page.
And there's a Super Scientist Club where visitors can get a passport stamp card booklet in the lab. For every five experiments completed at home, they can get a stamp for a science prize. At-home scientists can share their findings with the museum with drawings, pictures, videos, written stories and by just bringing it in.
