Many years ago I visited the Spark Museum in Downtown Bellingham, Wash. That was when I first heard about Tesla, a guy who loved to play with electricity and now has an electric vehicle (EV) named after him!
I cannot recommend “The Spark” too highly, especially for families with Curious George kids who love to learn new things.
The Spark Museum of Electrical Invention offers an exciting and educational experience for audiences of all ages. Compelling, interactive exhibits spanning four centuries of scientific achievement and cultural heritage are featured in a world-class collection of unique objects including the giant “MegaZapper” Tesla Coil which produces nine-foot lightning bolts! The Spark Museum displays the inventions and innovations that changed the course of human history.
MegaZapper Electrical Show performed every weekend!
The Museum is offering an awesome new MegaZapper Electrical Show every Saturday & Sunday at 2:30 p.m. –children under the age of 5 are encouraged not to attend, as part of the show, though safe, can be suddenly very loud. The Show features The MegaZapper, one of the largest Tesla coil “lightning machines” in the country, where, for a donation, adult visitors (18 years of age and older) can enter the Lightning Cage and get up close and personal with 4 million volts of loose electricity!
For more information please call the Museum Wednesday through Sunday 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. at 360.738.3886.
