Events   |   Winter 2012

Have you visited Pennypickle's Workshop lately? It's very busy at the Professor's house and you won't want to miss a thing! Be sure to reserve your tickets early so that you won't be left out. Adults are required to accompany their children at all events with the exception of the Kids Only Club adventures (YOU get to have fun, too, Mom and Dad!)


Thinking in Three Dimensions
Friday, January 20, 5:30-7:30 p.m.
How would you like to turn something two-dimensional into a three-dimensional object? Magic?? Nope! You'll find out how to do it tonight.

Kids should be able to handle paper folding and following directions, but if they are too little, mom and dad can certainly help.

Tickets for Thinking in Three Dimensions are $5 per person and will be held for you at the door.

Icky Creatures
Friday, January 27, 5:30-7:30 p.m.
Oooooohhhh... whether you love them or hate them.... we'll just have to check out what makes them so creepy, won't we? 

Tickets for Icky Creatures are $5 per person and will be held for you at the door.

Have a Heart
Friday, February 3, 5:30-7:30 p.m.

Pennypickle and Beaker love hearts, so tonight you get to enjoy figuring out what makes them tick... uhh... beat. Anyway, it'll be fun!

Tickets for Have a Heart are $5 per person and may be purchased at the door.

Do you know these facts about your heart?

If you're a kid, your heart is about the same size as your fist.
If you're an adult, it's about the same size as two fists.

Your heart beats about 100,000 times in one day
 and about 35 million times in a year. During an average lifetime,
the human heart will beat more than 2.5 billion times.
The heart is located almost in the center of the chest,
 between the lungs. It's tipped slightly so that a part of it
sticks out and taps against the left side of the chest.
(That's what makes it seem as though it's on your left side!)


Kids Only Club: Sweet Tooth Science
Friday, February 10, 5:30-7:30 p.m.

Kids love candy but they have no idea how science plays a part in its creation or its existence! Experiment with the tastiest ingredients any scientist would love - mentos, life savers, jelly beans, and more. Event is for kids only (no parents - you can go have a nice romantic dinner somewhere) and includes dinner so there will be no sugar-induced melt-downs!

Space will be limited to the first 60 children who have pre-registered. Please make your reservations early, as no tickets will be sold at the door. Children must be between the ages of 5-10 years old. Adults will not be allowed to stay - this is a lock-in event for pre-registered children only. Check-in time will begin at 5:15 p.m.

Please download, fill out, and email this waiver form to us when you register your children (print one for each child)! It will speed up our check-in process and we need to be aware if your child is allergic to anything! Email to:  phineas@pennypickles.org
Download the waiver form here.

Tickets for Kids Only Club: Sweet Tooth Science are $10 per child (this includes dinner!) and will be reserved for pick up at the door. You must let us know the name and age of each child when purchasing tickets. (Click here if you forget when you're buying the tickets! We need to know your child's name & age.)

Professor Pennypickle's Birthday Bash
Sunday, February 12, all sessions
It’s the Professor’s birthday and his assistants (and Beaker!) are throwing him a party - and YOU are invited! There will be lots of fun and surprises at the best and most crazy birthday party of the year. You may attend any session - we’ll be
partying all day!

Tickets to the Professor's Birthday Bash are $5 per person and may be purchased at the door.


Pennypickle's special events are fundraisers to help support programs and events at Pennypickle's Workshop,
and will be hosted by the Friends of the Temecula Children’s Museum, a 501 c3 non-profit organization.

Please call Pennypickle's gift shop at 951-308-6376 if you have questions about any events, or if you would like to purchase tickets by phone.
