Everyone’s favorite young scientist is going big time … with his own feature length
science adventure! Follow Sid and his friend Gabriela through their adventure in The Super Ultimate
Science Museum. The fun starts Monday, March 25 from 10:30 a.m.-Noon.
After winning a science fair contest for creating an awesome science experiment, Sid
and Gabriela are named “Junior Investigators” and get a special viewing of the new museum before it
opens to the public. Once there, they meet quirky scientist Dr. Bonabodon, voiced by guest-star
Christopher Lloyd (Back to the Future), who has designed robot tour guides of the future,
including Bobbybot, his greatest creation.
When Sid and Gabriela are introduced to Yangyang and Niuniu, the impressive big-kid
“Future Scientist” contest winners from China, they start to wonder if they really know their science
stuff. Together the four pals observe giant honey bees, investigate robots, and even encounter a giant
singing Tyrannosaurus Rex. But after their robot tour guide short circuits, Sid, Gabriela, Yangyang,
and Niuniu have to work together and use science to try to save the day. Together, they learn that you
can be a scientist at any age and that thinking like a kid is sometimes the best way to solve a problem!
The special will encore Friday, March 29 at 10:30am, and Sunday, March 31 at 9:00am.
