Why should kids have all the fun! This grown-up version of the museum’s popular 6th grade tour will include explanations and demonstrations for kids of all ages of the breadth of Victorian inventions that made Hearthstone a house of the future for the 1880s. These included the phonograph, telephone, central steam heat, and hot and cold running water in addition to green energy and electric lighting.
The evening will end with hands-on experiments, again for kids of all ages that illustrate some of Edison’s favorite inventions like making batteries out of lemons and demonstrating how microphones work using swimming pool charcoal (you can’t make this stuff up!).
Tickets are $15 each and are available exclusively on our website.
