Kids can learn how their hearts and muscles work during a free, hands-on science event at the Columbia Public Library on Tuesday, November 17, 2026.
Science Exploration with Mizzou Nutrition and Exercise Physiology gives elementary-aged children a chance to learn about their cardiovascular and musculoskeletal systems through three interactive activities. Kids will travel through a pretend cardiovascular system as red blood cells, see how their heart rates change during exercise and rest, and test their jumping ability and grip strength.
The hour-long event offers a fun way for young learners to get moving while learning more about how their bodies work. Attendance is free!
