The South Florida Science Center and Aquarium, formerly known as the South Florida Science Museum, recently

Fall-themed festivities will spill onto the front lawn of the center, officials said, as guests enjoy live entertainment, science-themed crafts, face painting, a bounce house, liquid nitrogen demonstrations, a petting zoo, a bean bag toss and more.
Special sweet treats will be provided in the form of snow cones.
