About ExplorationWorks!
Located in the Heart of Helena, ExplorationWorks! has something for kids ages 1-100!
Kids can explore their way through the fun of exploration and discovery, with their many hands-on activities and exhibits focused on all things science, technology, engineering, and math.
There are a host of exhibits that each offer kids exploration in a different subject matter. They can navigate the physics of water at the water table, or open and close tubes to design your own air pathways at the Air Maze. They can even wear their creative hats with reverse designs at the Pin Impression Board.
If you have little ones in the family, ExplorationWorks! also have a fun area just for those under 5 years!
A major exhibit changes occur 3-4 times per year, so no two visits are exactly alike - which is great!.
The Explore Store features smaller versions of some of their exhibits, so you can take a little part of your experience home with you! How fun does that sound!
