Hands-on science experiences for curious minds
Imagination playground
Build Big. Think Bigger.
Imagine a room filled with excited kids and big blue foam blocks in all shapes and sizes. Using oversized cogs, wheels, and tubes, they build castles, vehicles, ramps, and rolling tracks—stacking, connecting, and experimenting as they play. Designed by renowned architect David Rockwell, Imagination Playground invites endless creativity.
Imagination Playground encourages unstructured, child-directed play that supports healthy development. With open-ended blocks, kids create animals, robots, cities, and entire imaginary worlds. They invent the stories, set the rules, and express themselves through joyful, creative play.
STEAM Studio
Create, Experiment, and Invent
The STEAM Studio is Homewood Science Center’s hands-on maker space where creativity meets problem-solving. Families can explore engineering and design challenges using everyday materials, simple tools, and guided prompts.
This space encourages kids to ask questions, test ideas, and learn through trial and error—key skills in science, technology, engineering, art, and math. Activities rotate regularly, so there’s always something new to discover.
Little Learners
The Little Learners Room at Homewood Science Center is a bright, welcoming space designed just for our youngest visitors. Filled with hands-on learning toys and playful décor, it invites children to explore through imagination and discovery—whether they’re dressing up as an astronaut or doctor, practicing early math skills at the counting and sorting table, or watching colors shine and shift at the light table with magnet tiles.
