Why do fireflies and some ocean creatures glow at night?
Young scientists, ages 4-6, will explore the science and magic of bioluminescence, nature’s glow-in-the-dark phenomenon! Children will discover how animals like jellyfish, fireflies, and deep-sea fish use light to communicate, attract, and survive. Through hands-on glowing experiments, kids will mix their own “light potions,” explore glowing ocean slime, and make firefly art that actually glows. Don't miss out on this illuminating experience!
