The Science of Spying - Ontario Science Centre
Move over Agent Cody Banks!
With the help of the The Science of Spying exhibit, running at the Ontario Science Centre, kids will be able to transform themselves into super spies in no time at all!
The exhibit, running until September 7th, is definitely a fun way to learn about the craft of spying. It all starts with a mission. The mission, should you choose to accept it, (sorry, I couldn't resist) will be to penetrate the ultra-secret OSTECK organization to find out what dastardly deeds they are planning.
But wait! Before you let the kids loose on OSTECK, they will have to go through spy training to ensure a successful outcome to the mission.
That training will include learning how to crack a safe, decipher codes and how to tell a lie when needed. Visitors can even choose a disguise to make sure they remain undetected. Once the training is complete, it's show time!
Kids, or rather the spies, will be ready to walk into the OSTECK compound undercover. Will they make it out once they've completed their mission? The only way to find out is by experiencing The Science of Spying exhibit.
Check out a video on the exhibit:

Hot Tips:
There is parking at the Ontario Science Centre but you will have to pay $8.00. Your best bet is to take the TTC. There's a bus that stops right in front of the OSC.
As well, take some time to enjoy the grounds outside. There's lots of interactive activities for the kids and parents to try out.
If you go often to the Ontario Science Centre, check out their annual membership.
