Take the plunge at the Children’s Museum of Houston (CMH) by enjoy refreshing activities overflowing with wet, wild fun! There are some for those who like to stay on dry land or those who like to get their feet wet. Bring a towel!

Water Balloon Toss: Make a winning catch! Join CMH visitors in a flush frenzy where you flip water-filled balloons at each other and avoid making a big splash. If you do, you’ll be wiped out.

FlowWorks Exhibit: Fierce forces run wild and it’s up to you to tame them! Harness the power of water as FlowWorks bursts from the floodgates of your imagination into reality. Dip your hands in and watch how whirlpools and rapids stir up. Control water’s power through lock systems, boat building and dams, and examine methods to store, release and manipulate water’s energy.

Sea View: Just outside the porthole is an ocean view you created at Junktion.

Cool Shade: Stop by Junktion to make a visor that can help you beat the Houston heat.
