Santa Science with Adam from Mini Professors NI- Adam

4th Dec 2025
The children enjoyed their first STEM activity today at the Santa Science workshop. It was filled with festive wonder and discovery. They began by singing together, setting a joyful tone, before slipping on special glasses to marvel at the magic of the Northern Lights. Creativity soared as they crafted their very own flying reindeers, and laughter followed while exploring their senses—especially the sense of smell—with the help of a playful Elf. The excitement continued as they made snow, tossing snowballs in the playground, before winding down with a heartwarming Christmas story and a fascinating glimpse into the Arctic animals that call the North Pole home.
