I’m all about learning new things in 2014 and doing lots of fun activities! Today you can head over here to get two tickets to the Challenger Space Center in Peoria for $10 (a $16 value), four tickets for $18 (a $32 value), or a morning parent/child Space Tots class for $12 (a $20 value).

A little bit more information about the place:

“Challenger Space Center Arizona is on a mission: to excite and educate its visitors about science and the vast wonders of outer space. That excitement starts as soon as guests walk onto the entrance’s elevated gantry bridge to see a four-story, space-themed mural painted by Robert McCall. Then it’s on to the museum, where the center’s affiliation with the Smithsonian Institution enables it to offer top-notch exhibits, which range from a model of an Iridium satellite to three separate meteorite exhibits. Beneath theplanetarium’s night sky, stargazers can learn about the stars or test their wishes out on different constellations. Regular Family Star Nights encourage families to bond over stargazing presentations, a simulated shuttle launch, and other activities.

To immerse themselves in the space experience, groups can also sign up for two-hour simulated space missions that unfold in three spaces: a mission control room designed after the Johnson Space Center; the Spacecraft, which simulates a room onboard the International Space Station; and the Earth Space Transit Module, which helps crew members dock there.”

If you have younger kids, another great deal that caught my eye was half off tickets to see Sid the Science Kid Live at Comerica Theater. I LOVED this show when my kids were really little, Sid loves to learn new things and explore. He sings the best song ever on the way to school each day, “I love my mom, uh-huh, my mom is cool, uh-huh, and now it’s time for having fun at school”!

Yeah!

Enjoy!
