Discover the wonders of winter through hands-on experiments that showcase how animals survive frigid temperatures, snowy landscapes, and seasonal shifts. Selected experiments demonstrate how marine animals survive frigid waters and icy landscapes and how land-based animals survive harsh winters through hibernation. Children will also have the opportunity to observe the marvels of snow up close to learn about the unique, yet delicate, structures of snowflakes.
