LANSING, Mich. – NuUnion CU will partner with Lansing’s children’s museum, Impression 5 Science Center, to host the third annual Money Super Saturday – a day of fun and educational money-themed activities for kids.
Activities such as panning for gold, an on-site visit from a Brink’s truck and viewing the guts of an ATM will highlight the event, NuUnion said.
Parked outside the science center will be an armored Brink’s Truck, where kids will get the chance to visit the inside of the maximum security vehicle and meet its guards. Along with receiving a Money Super Saturday ATM card and wallet when they arrive, young visitors will collect their own pennies at each of the event’s 13 activities. NuUnion staff will be on hand to direct, teach and entertain.
The gold rush will be on, as kids flock to the Water Room to try their hand at panning for gold. Others will hope to win it big at the always popular Money Bingo. Guests will be able to check out the inside of a real ATM, and see a live demonstration of the machine’s complex security and operating systems. Nearby, children can aim for the day’s high score on a number of computer games, or check out currency from around the globe at the World of Money exhibit. After a full day of hands-on activities, children can relax in the First Impressions Room for story time.
