Make big things happen by playing with some of the smallest stuff around: electrons! From home-grown green power to a classic hair raising experience, we're positive you'll get charged up with science – literally. There's so much we can do with electricity, so each ElectriScience program is custom-built to fit your group's ages, sizes, and background knowledge. Explore concepts including the basics of electricity, current, generation, circuits, and power. For more in-depth exploration, make it an electric series! ElectriScience can span two or three sessions, each with plenty of wows. Caution, contents may explode!
Topics: Green energy, electricity generation, current electricty, static electricity, circuits, power

Have you noticed how we rarely ever see what's inside our gadgets? Have you ever wanted to combat that trend but didn't know how?
Participants in this program will discover amazing things about the products they use every day by pulling them apart, piece-by-piece.
This program isn't a presentation but rather a hands-on exploration of the electronics all around us. Additionally, Wondergy can provide a safe area for
"electronics therapy," where participants can deconstruct electronics with a baseball bat, rather than a screwdriver. All waste is ethically
recycled following the program. Price varies depending on the materials handling.
Topics: End-of-life, electronics recycling, "green" technology
The program focuses on the environmental impacts of electronics when they reach their "end-of-life" and how we can make better
corporate and consumer choices to reduce harmful "e-waste."
