"Just in time for fun holiday gatherings, Rockefeller Center is hosting a pop-up playground of sorts, GE Vernova's Innovators Toy Land. The activation will take over the plaza with a bustling playground aimed at kids and adults who are invited to play with hands-on STEM exhibits and meet scientists. It's all meant to inspire creativity, playfulness and innovation. The event takes place on December 8 between 9am and 10:30am and then again between 1pm and 4:30pm."
"Expect to play around with some time-honored toys like Slinky (the "walking" spring first sold in 1945), Lite-Bright (the light box with colored pegs that lets kids "draw" with light, first sold in 1967) and Rubik's Cube (the 3-D box puzzle invented in Hungary and first sold in the U.S. in 1980). There will also be Snap Circuits, a toy first released in 2002, which helps kids understand circuits as they build them, teaching the science of electronics by making it fun."
GE Vernova's Innovators Toy Land will occupy Rockefeller Center plaza as a pop-up playground offering hands-on STEM exhibits and scientist meet-and-greets for kids and adults. The activation runs on December 8 with morning and afternoon sessions and invites families to interact with classic toys like Slinky, Lite-Brite and Rubik's Cube. Snap Circuits stations will let visitors build and experiment with circuits to learn basic electronics. The Rockefeller Center Christmas tree lights will already be on, and nearby wood-trimmed chalets and the ice rink add seasonal ambiance. Admission to the playground is free for visitors.
