Get ready to squirm, giggle, and grow when Mr. Twisty brings his environmental hit to town for one unforgettable afternoon of hands-on fun!Mr. Twisty will share thousands of his own pet worms and teach kids how these amazing underground heroes recycle food scraps, leaves, and paper into nutrient-rich fertilizer that helps plants grow big and strong. Children will discover how worms keep soil healthy, support the food we eat, and quietly power our planet from beneath our feet. Best of all, kids will meet and gently hold real worms, making this an interactive experience they won’t forget.
And yes… Mr. Twisty will talk about worm poop!
Kids will learn about worm castings – one of the richest natural plant foods on Earth – and even get to dig their hands into a big bin of real worm castings. It may be worm poop, but it’s actually one of the cleanest and most beneficial natural substances around. Kids will also discover what bird poop and insect poop are called, and why it all plays an important role in nature. It’s science, a little bit gross, and a whole lot of fun!
The adventure continues as Mr. Twisty shares his heartwarming story Little Lily and Eddie the Earthworm, shows clips from the worm-themed episode of his YouTube Kids show Mr. Twisty’s Storytime Adventures, and twists up a wiggly balloon animal worm before the program ends.
Live worms. Storytime. Balloon twisting. Hands in worm poop. Laughter and learning all rolled into one squishy, unforgettable adventure. It’s worm-tastic fun for the whole family!
Included with museum admission.
