Summer Brain Games is Back at the Museum of Science and Industry!

We're gearing up for another fun summer of learning with Summer Brain Games! For the second year, MSI is offering up an exciting science-fused solution to help kids stay engaged during summer vacation.

Summer Brain Games offers eight weeks of free and fun at-home science experiments designed to combat the "summer brain drain," when kids lose months of critical learning. The free online activity guide features weekly experiments exploring summer themes like gardening, sunlight and sprinklers, all easily done at home with kids of all ages (and a little adult supervision).

The Summer Brain Games online kit will offer other engaging tidbits about the science to be found around you all summer—and year—long. Learn about optics by creating a pinhole viewer, watch plants grow without soil, build a weather station and much more.
