RANGELEY — Mad Science of Maine will be at the Rangeley Public Library at 10 a.m. Wednesday, July 26, to present the program “Engineering a Better World” as part of the 2017 summer reading program “Build a Better World.” Kids of all ages are invited to this free program, which is always one of the library’s most popular programs of the year.
Children will step into the shoes of engineers in this science show, designed to launch their imaginations into the boundless field of engineering. Captivating demonstrations and interactive experiments will inspire our next generation to think about how engineers design Things to make the world a better place.
here will be a smashing good time with the engineering design process, as children team up with fellow civil engineers to build a six-foot Roman arch. they will even reach beyond the sky to explore aerospace engineering with an explosive rocket launch.
An intelligent robot will display some pretty impressive Kung Fu and yoga moves to get kids excited about robotics engineering. Oozing chemical reactions and a demonstrations of a space age polymer will make children contemplate groundbreaking possibilities in chemical engineering. A “sparking” demonstration will electrify creativity and an amusing experiment with alternative energy will encourage children to ponder the future of this innovation. Children are our future. Together we can spark their imaginations and get them excited about engineering today!
Stop by the library or call 864-5529 for more information or to sign up.
