#Now Hiring Kid Researchers July 11 (Sun
), "Kids-Only Museum" at Galaxy City

The “Museum Just for Kids” is a little different from other Kids’ Creative Labs. It provides about 70 different types of materials, a variety of tools, and 90 minutes of time. How the children use the materials, tools, and time is entirely up to them.

Think it through carefully, then give it a try. Think about it again after you’ve made it. While experimenting with different approaches, you’ll keep working on it for a full 90 minutes.

With everyone’s cooperation—including wearing masks, washing hands, and using alcohol-based hand sanitizer—we will hold the event while strictly implementing infection prevention measures, such as limiting the number of participants and ensuring proper ventilation.

Date and Time: Sunday, July 11, Session 1: 10:00 a.m.–11:30 a.m., Session 2: 1:00 p.m.–2:30 p.m. Venue
: Galaxy City (Nishi-Arai)
Participants: Preschoolers (ages 4 and up) through 6th graders (mixed group of preschoolers and elementary school students)
Capacity: Approximately 10 participants per session

I can’t wait to see what kind of encounters and ideas the kids come up with!
*“Kids-Only Museum” is held once a month as a one-time workshop. For details on any workshops that catch your interest, please check our website via the link in our profile! https://www.canvas.ws/kenkyujo/laboratory/galaxcitymuse.php
