Little Sparks

Entry times: 9:30am, 10am, 10:30am, 11am
Recommended for families with children aged 3–5 years old.
Back by popular demand, SparkLab is turning the spotlight to our littlest scientists again for a limited time only!
Designed for curious 3–5 year olds, we invite children and their carers to explore science through play, hands-on discovery, and age-appropriate activities.
Take your time exploring SparkLab’s interactive exhibits with your little ones, discover something new at the Science Bar, or explore the wonders of earth and space at our Science on a Sphere.
With gentle experiments, sensory exploration, and plenty of space to imagine, spark their curiosity in a fun and welcoming environment, Little Sparks is a perfect opportunity for families with under 5s to start their journey with SparkLab and Queensland Museum.
Join us for a morning of discovery, wonder, and play!
Book your tickets at your preferred entry time from the available dates:
