Exhibits & Activities
World Map
The nations on our world map are marked by fiber optic lights that brighten when the nation is being referred to in one of the 20 audio reports that convey a full range fascinating facts about our world. See where the four primary languages on Earth are spoken, in which countries are the people most vain, where the most devastating natural and man-made disasters have occurred and much more!
Brainteasers
Here you have a series of tricks, devices and gadgets designed to challenge your mind. For example, why does a 32″ rectangular diameter contain 64 square inches when it’s configured 8″x 8″ but only 15 square inches when it’s configured 1″x 15″? Shouldn’t a fixed diameter always hold the same amount of space? Try out some of our conundrums out but be careful not to hurt yourself!
Wooden Kinetic Sculptures
The Funhouse features two separate sculptures by the genius kinetic artist, David Roy. Using no electricity and just a simple, wind-able repeater spring, Roy’s creations run for hours in most fascinating patterns. Come and see if you can figure out how it works!
