A World of Symmetry

Dive into the concept of symmetry. You'll match symmetrical objects, learn about symmetrical animals, and challenge yourself by building symmetrical puzzles.

Finding Spirals and Patterns

Uncover the incredible patterns that exist everywhere in nature. Activities include a pattern sort, a fast-paced race to recognize patterns, and an opportunity to make your own tessellation art.
