BUILD A CASTLE FOR YOUR KINGDOM AT DISCOVERY CUBE ORANGE COUNTY
11.24.19
Imagine a place for children to create a kingdom or castle of their own where they can learn planning and construction skills. Discovery Cube Orange County in Santa Ana invites children of all ages to create their own kingdoms and castles at the new Castle Builder exhibit through Jan. 26. The exhibit will teach apprentices the planning skills they need to create their own castles, fortresses, and kingdoms.
“The Castle Builder exhibit will test children’s planning and construction skills as they build a castle brick by brick,” said Joe Adams, CEO, Discovery Cube. “Guests will get to explore a castle and see all of its intricacies, use a catapult to test the strength of a fortress wall, and even visit a dragon.”
After building a castle of their own in one of three build areas separated by age, guests can visit a giant castle and see the king and queen’s thrones, a suit of armor and dragon made of LEGO® bricks, and the king’s secret treasure room filled with jewels. Children also can dress up in medieval costumes, visit the lookout tower to fend off intruders, and study secrets from real-world castles such as Blarney, Arundel, and Neuschwanstein.
Additionally, guests can use a 3-D computer program and hands-on catapult to virtually build and test the durability of their castle walls. Visitors also can visit the dragon’s cave and create their own fantastical fairytale.
Created for children of all ages and their families, the Castle Builder exhibit invites builders to explore the medieval world with their imaginations.
Tickets can be purchased online at oc.discoverycube.org/event/castle-builder or at the ticket booth.
Discovery Cube is at 2500 N Main St, Santa Ana. 714.542.2823
