Mark your calendars: N.C. Museum of Natural Sciences to open special exhibit Brain Games this month

The N.C. Museum of Natural Sciences in downtown Raleigh will open a special exhibit this month that features all kinds of mind-bending adventure, 3D puzzles and full-body games.

Mazes and Brain Games opens Jan. 20 and runs through Sept. 3 and will include everything from brain teaser tables to a 3D marble maze, a music maze, an infinity mirror and more.

Minotaur Mazes is behind the exhibit. The company also created the Rainforest Adventure exhibit, which was at the museum in 2014 and included monkey bars and spider web-like rope piece that kids could climb.

"Test your perceptions and laugh your way through the maze of illusions, a feast of visual trickery. Run a marathon with your fingers on the Finger Mazes, or become a 'webmaster' by climbing through an intricate web of ropes without getting tangled in the Web Maze. Wrap your head around the Puzzle Maze, and get lost in a network of color in the Color Maze. Conquer puzzling challenges and discover new ways of problem solving around every corner," the website says.

Sounds like it's right up the alley for a lot of kids!
