2010 Fermilab Family Open House

It’s a party for children who bring an adult with them to learn about the world of physics. (There’s plenty for the grown-ups, too.)

The Open House will be most appropriate for children in grades 3 and up (tours restricted to adults and children age 10 and up).

A tentative schedule of events includes:

• Mr. Freeze’s fabulous cryogenics show
• Physics concepts with hands-on activities
• Ask a scientist your physics questions.
• A tour of the linear accelerator, CDF, or the Meson Lab.
• And more!
