Description

The Pocket Science Funfair is a travelling roadshow full of hands-on activities for kids aged 7+. Each stall offers a puzzle or a challenge, with a little bit of science thrown in. You'll play funfair games, solve optical illusions and construct Rube Goldberg machines. Parents are encouraged to join in, and our team will be on hand to help explain the facts behind the fun.

“I thought the energy and enthusiasm of the volunteers was fantastic. Their ability to capture the attention of the young people was great. Fantastic team!”

Richard Robinson is a science educator and author. He founded Brighton Science Festival and has written 20 books about science, including the best-selling Why the Toast Always Lands Butter Side Down.

This is a drop-in event, feel free to come along at any time.
Tickets are available online or on the door: £5 per child (adults and under 7s go free).

The event is part of our 'Hands-On Half Term' week of science fun at the 44th Brighton Scout Hut in Patcham, Feb 10-18.
