Explore Lost Worlds
Bring science and storytelling together in this interactive Mad Science show designed for Summer Reading 2026: Unearth a Story.
Dinosaurs have inspired myths, legends, and books for centuries. Through fossils, skulls, and big science demos, kids discover how we piece together the lives of these giants and how they’ve sparked tales from dragons to roaming beasts. Perfect for sparking curiosity and connecting reading to real-world science!

Dynamite Dave was great! He kept the kids (3-5) attention and involved them in his experiments. The kids loved it!

We have had Mad Science at the Falmouth Public Library numerous times. The reason is, they consistently deliver an amazing show, that always delights our patrons. Joltin' Jonathan is amazing at crowd control. He's professional, funny, and easily engages the crowd. Whenever we have Mad Science come, parents and caregivers always thank us for hiring them!
