Exploratorium Exhibit: Physics of Toys
On the third Saturday of every month, the Exploratorium presents Physics of Toys, an interactive laboratory that explores toys in a one-on-one workshop in which children and adults alike investigate the science of everyday things. All materials are provided, and museum guests can take home what they make. Physics of Toys is always free with museum admission.

Housed within the walls of San Francisco's landmark Palace of Fine Arts, the Exploratorium is a collage of hundreds of interactive exhibits in the areas of science, art, and human perception.
The Exploratorium stands in the vanguard of the movement of the 'museum as educational center.' It provides access to, and information about, science, nature, art, and technology.
This unique museum was founded in 1969 by noted physicist and educator Dr. Frank Oppenheimer, who devoted his efforts to it—and was its director—until his death in 1985. From 1991 until 2005, the museum was led by renowned French scientist and educator Dr. Goéry Delacôte. In May 2006, nationally known science education and policy expert Dr. Dennis M. Bartels was named Executive Director.
