One exhibit, called "The Imaginarium Place", allows children to use their imagination to invent contraptions and interact in imaginary scenarios.

“The Imaginarium Place Exhibit”
Just imagine a place for children and families to invent, create
and build whatever they can dream up or visualize! Once inside,
discover a world of unique contraptions where you can make pigs
fly, wooden spoons clap, a cat and dog interact, and a baseball
player miss a hit every time.
The room will be full of so many interactive activities you won’t
want to leave, such as an invention centre where you can build
your own contraption and even take it home with you, a LEGO®
&
DUPLO®
centre, a fort and dress up area where children can let their
imaginations run wild.
We will even have a quiet spot for the parents, where they can
sit back and watch while their children explore the wonders of the
Imaginarium Place.
