EWW, GROSS!

Burps, warts, runny noses and smelly, achy body functions are brought to light in the exhibit "Grossology." Interactive play stations take you through indigestion, scaling a wall of pimples and pretend surgery to remove organs. Nigel Nose-It-All teaches guests what causes a runny nose.
