For Families

Toddler Workshops

Science exploration for children ages 18-36 months.

Investigate the world around you and your toddler through a field trip into COSI, hands-on activities, take-home materials, and lots of time creating and exploring together. Choose our early morning workshop (9:15-10:15am) or mid-morning workshop (10:45am–11:45am) for either pair of dates. Toddler Workshops meet twice for one hour each time.
