Math Midway will be at the Discovery Center for Science & Technology in Thousand Oaks until August 12th. Notice all the volunteers in white lab coats?  Everywhere you turned there was a helpful person willing to be patient and explain any and all aspects of the events.  And these aren’t even all of the exhibits.

…………………………………………………………My daughters are 4 and 7 and were entertained and stimulated.  They asked some provocative questions and were EXCITED to apply Math and Physics principles to the games they were playing.  The older  homeschoolers in our group were equally impressed and spent more time at certain exhibits.  Each element of the exhibit offers a mulititude of layers.  On the surface layer, it is like a magic trick that is instantly gratifying.  Then upon further investigation, the deeper understanding grants you even more challenges.  Every parent was engaged as well by this fun exhibit: from the string-less  harp that plays on sensors, the numberline tightrope a monkey rides on,  to the center attraction – the square-wheeled tricycles on a fibonacci sunflower.  I promise you will not leave Math Midway with out learning something new!

Check out some of the action shots and videos of the fun we all had.  And if you do go, tell them that MudPies & Butterflies sent you!  If you do, they will get $1 off each person in your party.
