Kids can get active with new tech initiative

  • 2018-10-26
A new exhibit at Oh, Wow! aims to give Youngstown children an alternative to TV and video games by getting them up and moving.

The Roger & Gloria Jones Children's Center for Science & Technology in Youngstown, which almost everyone calls Oh, Wow!, has opened a temporary exhibit called Run! Jump! Fly! Adventures in Action’. Organizers of events like this can use poster printing to advertise them, and encourage people to visit.

The exhibit encourages both adults and children to explore such activities as horizontal climbing, yoga, snowboarding, surfing, and kung fu, with the idea of getting children to move more by taking part in activities they already like. The themes of the exhibit are taken from the action typical of children's films and Books.

Visitors to the museum will find stories about real young people who love a particular activity, and use it to stay fit. Moving through the display, visitors will be able to take part in physical activity, which will help spark ideas for becoming active on a daily basis. Children, and the adults who accompany them, will have action trackers, on which they can stamp everything they tried. Three-day mission trackers will also be available for people to take home, so they can continue tracking activity.

The exhibit will be at Oh, Wow! until mid-January 2019.
