GROSSOLOGY:
The (Impolite) Science of the Human Body
Get ready to be GROSSED OUT!!
Come see what all the STINK is about!
Kids will love discovering the science behind the slimy, mushy, oozy, and stinky things that occur every day in the human body! Based on the best-selling book Grossology by Sylvia Branzei.
With more than 20 interactive displays and games,
kids and adults will have fun with hands-on activities like these:
• Climb a “human skin” wall with warts, hairs & wounds
• Learn what causes runny noses, sneezes and allergies from
Nigel Nose-it-All
• Play “Gas Attack” pinball
• Release a giant burp
• Enter an enormous cartoon “nose” to explore nasal features
• Crawl and slide through the “GI Slide”
• Watch how food moves through your gut on its way to
being digested
