All About Me | Parent Guide Video

Located on Level 1, get ready to walk through an enormous “working” stomach, complete with the sights, sounds and smells of the digestive process! Watch surgeries being performed, featuring the techniques of Dr. Edward B. Diethrich, in the Heart Surgery Theater, or test your heart muscles in our Wheelchair Racers. Enjoy exploring the systems of the human body-from defense and immunity to cardio and pulmonary, digestive and skeletal. You can even hear your actual heartbeat as it is translated into sound on a bass drum! Plus, plan to attend exciting, live science demonstrations in the Daniel Cracchiolo Theater. This stage comes to life daily with scientific demonstrations. From eyeballs to explosions, each demonstration incorporates audience volunteers to roll up their sleeves as they question everything.
