Kings Dominion Theme Park at home

Are you missing amusement parks? We are—especially roller coasters.  Here are virtual rides.   Did you know Kings Dominion Theme Park has fun things to do at home?  One of Kings Dominion’s ideas is making a marble run; here is Frugal Fun’s marble run made from craft sticks and a straw roller coaster.  Kings Dominion’s sister park, Carowinds, has similar activities and coloring pages, including this mask.  FYI, here amusement park educational resources.  Whenever, the amusement parks open, consider this Amusement Park Physics Kit—or make your own accelerometers. (Here is my blog post on Amusement Park Physics.) Full disclosure: When I have a bigger group, I buy the Pasco Amusement Park Kit for the kids to make the accelerometers in advance to use at the Park.   Here’s hoping we get to Kings Dominion soon!  BTW, Good Will has a K’nex Roller Coaster Kit.
