NEWTOWN, Conn. -- Who doesn't love a story? At EverWonder Children's Museum in Newtown, "Story Lab" is a once a week event that tends to draw young children and their caregivers.

The museum, founded in January 2011, prides itself on cultivating a lifelong love-of-learning for children by encouraging them to think, inquire, and wonder about the world around them. 

Among the exhibits, guests will find an art lab, a three-wheeled racer car track, a magnet table, tornado tubes, a giant pendulum, a dancing wall and a swinging art harmonograph.

The museum is at 31 Peck's Lane, (203) 364-4009, www.everwondermuseum.org/.
