Family Edition!

Join us for some digi family fun at Make Stuff’s Family Day. Make Stuff will be taking over Stockport Central Library with a whole heap of activities, experiments, and have-a-go experiences!

Follow the BOOM and come along to feel 1000 watts of bass power though your fingers with Noisy Toys, watch some dancing alien Oobleck (corn flour), make laser-blaster sounds with a slinky, find out how sound waves work, and discover amazing sounds hidden in everyday objects. 

Plus! Play a mechanical violin, connect your friends to an electrical circuit to find out how squeaky their noses are, and make a Robot Chicken or Auto-Strummer using upcycled computer guts.

And! making, crafting, coding, and much much more!

Warning! Mild peril and deviant audio!

With over 10 activities to choose from, this promises to be an absolutely fantastic day out.
