Learn how your heart works and why it sometimes beats slow and other times feels like it is going to burst out of your chest!


Through a hands-on interactive session, learn all about hearts and answer questions such as: How does the heart work? What makes the heart beat? Is a mouse heart the same as a whale heart? Can we measure what happens when you exercise? This one-hour workshop is suitable for children aged 6-10 years, with two sessions on offer at different locations.
