How People Make Things celebrates the people, the manufacturing processes and the technology used to make everyday objects in our world. It tells the story of how familiar childhood objects are made and how people, ideas, and technology transform raw materials into finished products. Kids can try firsthand the tools and processes used to make every day objects in an immersive play factory environment.

Pajama Party! Put on your favorite pair of pajamas, grab your slippers, and be ready to party! It's our annual family-friendly celebration to ring in the New Year. Participate in family-fun games, design and decorate your own slumber party bag, and make a slap bracelet. Create a lava lamp and slime, dance the night away with great music, and eat delicious party food. The evening ends with our iconic balloon drop at Kids Midnight (8:30 p.m.). All children must be accompanied by an adult.
