Pumpkin Palooza

Saturday, October 26, 2024  |  9 am – 2 pm

Scoop, Squish, Create, and More! Pumpkin Palooza is full of fun, not frightening festivities for the whole family. Come in costume and celebrate the season with DCM. This event engages visitors in creative experiences that explore S.T.E.A.M. concepts through play.

Special Activities:

• Build Your Own FrankenBuddy
  Using recycled toy parts, visitors can create their own unique play…thing or break apart a toy and figure out how it all fits together.
  
• Spooky Science Show (times TBD)
• Pumpkin Hammering
  Hammer “nails” into pumpkins. A festive fine-motor skill activity. Exciting experiments await.
  
• Jump & Rake Leaf Piles
  Scatter and rake leaves that dance in our giant air tunnel!
  
• Webby Ramps & Rollers
  Will the webs change the course?
• And More!
