Magna Science Adventure Centre is cracking open a spring full of discovery, invention, and hands-on fun this Egg-ineering Easter, running from March 28 to April 19, 2026.

Families are invited to roll up their sleeves and get inventing across a packed programme of live shows and craft sessions designed to inspire the engineers, scientists, and innovators of tomorrow.

Joining Magna for the occasion is the hugely popular YouTube channel and live show Kids Invent Stuff- as seen on The One Show, Tomorrow's World Live, and BBC News. The team behind the channel will be bringing their very own wild and wonderful inventions to life in a spectacular live show. Expect hands-on engineering, creativity, plenty of surprises, and a show that proves invention is for everyone.

Alongside the Kids Invent Stuff live show, Magna's family-favourite science show will be firing up throughout the holidays, delivering the spectacular demonstrations visitors have come to love. And for those who want to get hands-on, craft sessions will give children the chance to design and build their very own pompom shooters- putting budding inventors firmly in the driving seat.

Richard Hammill, CEO at Magna said:

"Magna was built on the story of steel- a celebration of the extraordinary engineering that shaped this region and so many lives. It feels only right that this Easter we're inviting the next generation to roll up their sleeves and discover that same spirit of invention for themselves. Egg-ineering Easter is all about showing children that engineering and science are for everyone, and that with a little imagination, there's no limit to what you can create."

Ruth Amos- inventor at Kids Invent Stuff said:

“I’m absolutely thrilled that Kids Invent Stuff will be heading to Magna this Easter with our brand new interactive invention show. While I won’t be there in person, I’ll be appearing virtually to set the challenge and cheer everyone on - and I can’t wait to see how families get involved!

Oh no… I’ve lost the keys to the workshop! Can you help my team unlock it? Together with our brilliant educational team on the ground, you’ll tackle a series of inventive challenges, using creativity, problem solving and plenty of imagination to crack the clues.

Our education team are fantastic at bringing invention to life in a really hands-on, energetic way, and I’m so excited for them to be delivering the sessions live at Magna. It’s going to be full of big ideas, audience participation and those lightbulb moments where children realise they can be inventors too. I’ll be joining virtually to kick things off and support the mission - so get ready to think differently, get stuck in and help us unlock the workshop!”

Please note, Ruth Amos will not have a physical presence at the Invention Show.
