PepsiCo Day of Caring

PepsiCo Day of Caring takes over the Perot Museum of Nature and Science on Thursday, October 22, from 10 AM to 1:30 PM. It's a museum-wide day of free, hands-on activities presented by PepsiCo, so instead of just walking through the exhibits, you'll be spending the morning actually doing things.

The activities are spread across the museum, and they cover a few different angles. There are engineering challenges for those who like to build and tinker, science explorations for anyone curious about how things work, and snack explorations that tie back to the day's sponsor. Because it's museum-wide, you can move from one to the next at your own pace rather than sticking to a single room.

Since the activities are included with general admission, you just pay for your ticket to get in and then you're set for the whole morning. If you're planning to make a day of it, keep in mind the activities run from 10 AM to 1:30 PM, so arriving closer to opening gives you the most time to hit as many stations as you'd like.
