В музее атомной истории Лас-Вегаса прошел бесплатный научный праздник для детей

LAS VEGAS ( FOX5 ) — Families packed the Atomic Museum Saturday for “STEM Saturday,” a free, hands-on science event for kids. The Nevada National Security Site sponsored this month’s session, giving students a chance to learn about electromagnetism with simple, interactive experiments. The first 60 kids received free admission for themselves and their families to tour the rest of the museum after the activities.

Staff said the sessions are already filling up with waiting lists, a sign there’s a big appetite for hands-on science in the valley. STEM Saturdays run the first Saturday of each month during the school year. Families can register through the NNSS Community Engagement page or on their website.
