**It looks like a funfair:** it is a funfair, but each of the attractions has a bit of science to enthral and enthuse young minds. It’s a two-man science mission to spark children’s curiosity with fun and interactive workshops and talks.

With a wealth of hands-on activities, this self-contained education roadshop has been roaming Sussex and beyond for the last ten years – fostering learning and co-operation whilst inspiring young people with the everyday wonders of science.

The ever-growing line-up is packed with a whole host of new tricks, demonstrations and games – brand new additions include zip-wire seagull bombing and the opportunity to grow several times your original size or shrink to the size of a pin – alongside old favourites such as the Heath Robinson inspired contraption, the Incredible Machine.

Created by science magicians **Richard Robinson** (Director of Brighton Science Festival) and **Jonathan Hare** (from BBC’s Rough Science), it’s a fantastic afternoon out for the whole family.
