Tinkering Spaces
Tinkering fosters creativity, problem-solving, and curiosity in children. Through hands-on activities and crafts, they engage in active learning, building confidence and critical thinking skills. At Science Museum Oklahoma, we have two tinkering spaces that provide a fun, creative way to spark curiosity and a love for science and exploration.
Tinkering Garage
Best for ages 7+
Step into the Tinkering Garage, where engineering, art, and technology come together in a hands-on, creative space for all ages. This interactive workshop invites you to design, build, invent, and explore through ever-changing hands-on activities and crafts. With new projects each month, there is always something fresh to discover.
Tinker Works
Best for ages 4-7
Tinker Works is designed for curious minds ages 4-7, where hands-on activities spark creativity and build essential skills. This engaging space encourages young learners to experiment, build, and create, developing hand-eye coordination and crafting skills along the way. Through playful exploration, children gain confidence in problem-solving while discovering the fun of science and engineering in an interactive setting. Tinker Works is located in CurioCity.
