SCITECH’S new toddlerfest hopes to get the little ’uns interested in science with activities for kids zero to five.

Rather than toddlers having to get their heads around E=MC², Scitech’s aiming to get kids engaged in science through a more sensory experience.

There’ll be playdough maths so kids can experiment with shapes, farm animals to pet and learn about, the simple science behind bubbles, a toddler gym circuit to develop motor skills and a zero-to-three baby safe zone.

A Ngala early parenting practitioner will also be down there every morning to answer questions about child development, along with community health nurses doing free development checks.

Toddlerfest runs February 10 to 23 and Children under four are free, and there’s more info at scitech.org.au
