How do plants and animals solve survival challenges? Through hands-on discovery, families will make observations and discoveries about how structures and processes in nature solve problems and how we can learn from them to develop sustainable ways to solve human problems.
Who: Open to the public
What: Family Day
When: Saturday, Jan. 27, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Where: Museum of Natural History
On Saturday, Jan. 27, meet CU Boulder students and community partners who are weaving together science, technology, engineering, art and math to find innovative and sustainable solutions for the challenges we face in our changing environments. Explore their approaches and experiment with your own “STEAM” ideas by observing, predicting, building, testing and creating.
Family Days inspire wonderment about the natural world in families and kids of all ages (0–18 years old). Each topic will connect disciplines of natural science, human culture, technology, art and innovation to engage families across generations and cultures. You’ll explore these topics through hands-on activities including creative take-home crafts, up-close observations, play-based activities and experiments.
Visit the Museum of Natural History for the schedule of upcoming Family Days.
