MYRTLE BEACH, South Carolina – (July 8, 2022) –
Summer
boredom can be detrimental for kids. While parents may tire of hearing the ”I’m
bored” complaints, teachers will also see the results once school returns in
the fall. Kids who are not kept engaged and learning throughout the summer tend
to lose some of what they were taught during the school year. WonderWorks
Myrtle Beach helps avoid that, giving kids a place where they can combat the
“summer slide,” keep learning, and have fun in the process.
“WonderWorks is such a great option for Myrtle
Beach locals and visitors this summer,” says Robert Stinnett, general manager
at WonderWorks Myrtle Beach. “We’re not only a fun and exciting attraction.
We’re also a great educational resource for parents and families looking to
keep their kids engaged while they are out of school.”
Kids are often unaware they are learning while
having fun, making WonderWorks the perfect summer outing for families.The
exploring and hands-on activities help them avoid what The Brookings Institute
calls the "summer slide," when children lose a month's worth of
school-year learning throughout the summer
break. Parents can help kids avoid this by keeping them engaged and actively
learning during the summer months.
WonderWorks Myrtle Beach is an indoor attraction, making it the ideal option no
matter what type of weather may be outside. People can escape the heat and rain
by heading inside the amusement park for the mind, where they combine education
and entertainment. Guests will head home having learned something new, whether
they know it or not.
Some of the
fun activities families can engage in at WonderWorks Myrtle Beach include:
- Over
100 hands-on exhibits focused on topics of STEM (science, technology,
engineering, and mathematics), and fun activities focused on physics,
astronomy, physical science, and more in one engaging environment.
- A
new STEM room, including exhibits focused on robotics, shark anatomy, and
more.
- The
ART-OLINA Young Artist’s Gallery of the Carolinas, featuring artwork by
local young artists.
- New
exhibits, such as Good Vibrations and Sphere We Go, where guests can take
a deeper look at the layers of planet Earth and how earthquakes are
measured.
- The
Wonder Zones, where guests can explore topics such as space, light, sound,
extreme weather, pressure, and more.
- An
indoor ropes course with over 30 different obstacles, perfect for staying
active.
- Soar
+ Explore, where guests can reach new heights on the zipline or test their
skills on the outdoor obstacle course.
“Our hidden talent is teaching guests something
new about science without them even knowing! All of our exhibits are rooted in
STEM topics, which often surprises and excites our guests,” added Kaitlin
Barnes, education sales manager at WonderWorks Myrtle Beach. “You’ll walk away
learning something new every time you visit.”

the summer, offering more time for fun and exploration. They offer group rates
for those who have 15 or more people, making it an excellent option for summer
camps. WonderWorks is open daily from 9 am to 11 pm, with Soar + Explore open
