Water Gallery

About the Water Gallery

The Water Gallery is an immersive, hands-on exhibit that invites children to explore the properties and power of water through sensory-rich play. Designed to look like pure fun—with splashing, scooping, pouring, and building—it’s also a powerful learning tool. The exhibit is designed to:

  • Promote sensory integration and fine motor skills through activities like water flow manipulation, pipe construction, and object balancing.
  • Encourage collaborative problem-solving as children work together to build boats, redirect water currents, and experiment with cause and effect.
  • Support STEM learning by introducing basic engineering concepts, fluid dynamics, and systems thinking
