About STEAM Festival 2024: The Secret Life of Rex
At the STEAM Festival 2024, your child will have the chance to meet Rex, a little dinosaur with big dreams, and journey into his secret world. Rex may be small, but his curiosity is limitless, and he’s eager to share some truly fascinating discoveries with young explorers like your child. This year’s festival offers a unique opportunity for children to dive into the wonders of science in a fun and engaging way.
Throughout the event, children will uncover the science behind our five senses—sight, sound, touch, taste, and smell—and gain a deeper understanding of how we interact with the world around us. They’ll also explore the mysterious realm of sleep and dreams, learning about how our brains work while we rest and why dreams are such an intriguing part of our lives. It’s a chance for kids to discover how these processes influence the way we think, feel, and experience the world each day.
One of the key themes of the festival is the importance of developing healthy sleep habits. Through interactive, hands-on activities, children will learn how proper sleep influences everything from mood to memory and concentration. This part of the experience will encourage kids to reflect on their sleep routines and understand why rest is essential for both their physical and mental well-being.
The STEAM Festival 2024 is packed with fun and educational activities designed to engage and inspire. The immersive, interactive formats make learning feel like an adventure, allowing children to explore scientific concepts in a playful and meaningful way. Beyond just fun, the festival provides a platform where kids can develop their creativity, confidence, and critical thinking skills. By participating, they’ll gain a deeper sense of curiosity about the world and leave with a greater appreciation for the science that shapes their everyday lives.
Explore, Learn, and Play
Inside the festival, children can explore various hands-on zones, each crafted to engage their imagination and bring science to life in exciting and interactive ways.
One of the highlights is Rex’s Perceptual Playground, a space where optical illusions come to life. Kids will enjoy mind-boggling visuals and have the opportunity to create their own illusion crafts, experimenting with perception in this fun, hands-on zone. They can also watch animations spring to life
Another must-visit is Rex’s Dreamscape, where children can step into a surreal infinity mirror portal, chat with Rex about dreams, and take part in a fun pillow-throwing game. For those who enjoy a challenge, there’s also a giant puzzle to solve, encouraging teamwork and critical thinking in a playful environment.
The Whimsical Walkway offers a playful, photo-worthy hallway filled with optical illusions. It’s a space where children can marvel at visual tricks and snap pictures with their family, all while learning about how our brains interpret the world around us.
In Nighty Night Neurons!, kids can unleash their creativity by designing their own nighttime projections. Featuring artworks created by children from the community, this experience allows young ones to scan their creations and watch them come to life in a magical seascape of dreams projection. It’s a unique way to showcase the power of imagination and the beauty of shared creativity.
