Light and Colour Zone
"Pluck" the laser beams of the Light Harp to make a little light music or check out the Two Way Mirror!
Forces and Movement Zone
Why not put all your energy into launching the Hydrogen Rocket with a bang, or build the Arch Bridge to see if it will support your weight.
Sound and Communication Zone
See the new exhibits for 2002. Talk with your friend across the courtyard through our whisper dishes. See the top of the tower without having to climb the steps!
Body and Perception Zone

Woodland and Water Zone
The new zone is extremely popular. Come and float leaves in the stream, watch the leaf cutter ants working or make our water tornado work. .
