Many of our activities at Fab Science events need us to see things that are very small, from bug-hunting to analysing fibres in Fab Forensics.

Some of their most popular products include "Hot Wires" game, "Edible Science" game, and "Aquagelz" craft sets. No safety issues and all the pieces are sturdy enough to hold up to being misaligned or misconceived on occasion. They help us to know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the site.That is all good and kids should be encouraged to learn as much as possible, especially as their brains are like sponges.
