This was a super fun exhibit to play with. You get the balls going and try to capture just certain colors. I enjoyed it as much as the 5 year old who played it.
This was my favorite exhibit. There are two stations that allow you to release the balls and try to capture just certain colors. It was like a race track of balls going around and around.
