Enjoy a day of fun and play-based learning activities without the school groups!
In partnership with Playgroup Victoria, Scienceworks gets ready for a Grand Adventure at our next Little Kids\’ Day In event, transforming into a vibrant and engaging space dedicated to kids 5 and under, their parents and carers. We’ll have unique play-based experiences and a huge range of activities, circus, music, storytelling and shows.
Boogie with the Funky Monkey Family band as they journey through the forest and around the world, explore circus tricks in the Dreaming Space, join in storytelling and music sessions, and make your own tambourine to take home!

PERFORMANCES
All Come Out to Play: 11.00pm

The Funky Monkey Family in the Jungle: 12.00pm
Creep into the woods to see what we can find! Who knows what fun hides in there – hip-hopping bears, rockin’ robins or maybe even giant bubbles that whisk us away to another world? Adventure awaits in this 30-minute performance, filled with music, magic and mystery.
The Funky Monkey Family around the World: 1.30pm
Come on a whirlwind journey with circus acts, magic tricks and funky music. Do you love being a monkey jumping on the bed? Maybe climbing trees in Africa instead! Find out what kind of world it would be if we were all one big Funky Monkey Family in this 30-minute performance.
