WAUSAU, Wis. (WSAW) – Wausau’s Children’s Imaginarium gave kids the opportunity to dress up in their favorite costumes and engage in science-based learning.
The theme of the event was weird science. It is centered around stem activities for kids to enjoy while keeping that spooky Halloween theme.
“In our STEM lab here, we have dry ice, which is talking about CO2. In another lab, we have a healthy science snack,” Julie Bollmann, executive director for the Children’s Imaginarium, said.
First Impressions Pediatric Dentistry sponsored the event. One organizer said it is important for them to give back to their community.
“We think it’s been a great success. We love seeing all the kids come in with all their different costumes. The kids are having so much fun. We’re really really happy. We’re excited to hopefully make this a thing that happens year after year,” Rylee Denhel, a dentist at First Impressions Pediatric Dentistry, said.
This is the first time the Children’s Imaginarium has hosted a science-based Halloween event for kids. The Children’s Imaginarium has only been open for about 10 months in Wausau. Bollmann said she hopes events like these will open the door for more events for kids.
