Learning never stops this summer in Exploreum at SM Mall of Asia. With all the in-season classes and activities that are available, parents are caught between the choice of educational or fun engagements for their children.

If you’re in a struggle between the two, worry no more because SM Lifestyle Entertainment, Inc. has the perfect summer activity for you!

SM Lifestyle Entertainment’s (SMLEI) Exploreum is a family-centered facility that believes in parent-children bonding activities that engage and mould curious minds through edutainment (a term used for education through entertainment). Now, fully renovated and with additional summer programs, Exploreum offers 118 child-friendly all-new interactive exhibits and over 100 interesting nuggets of information situated in eight major interactive galleries namely the Natural World, Human Adventure, Zoom, Connect, Cyberville, Space Camp, the Living Earth, and Science Park.

The Exploreum’s Main Attractions

One of the main attractions in Exploreum is the Science on a Sphere or the SOS. First in the Philippines, the Science on a Sphere is a room-sized digital globe that projects real-time, dynamic images of planets, climate change, ocean temperature, and even air traffic. Developed by the US government’s National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the SOS will be an interactive exhibit, allowing visitors to control the face of the sphere through a tablet.

If your kids are into movies, the Exploreum houses the country’s only full-sized Dome Theatre. Formerly known as the Planetarium, the Dome Theatre is the only theatre in the Philippines that could boast of its 180-degree digital screen and advanced audio-visual system. With the Digi-star 5, the world’s best-selling operating system and the latest installment for full dome theatres, the 158-seater Dome Theatre promises a photo-realistic experience through its clear-cut projections and remarkable surround sound that will make guests feel as if the cosmos are just within reach. This state-of-the-art facility will feature videos about the space, earth, and beyond.

Exploreum’s First Summer Camp
