From collectors

The Ann Arbor Hands On Museum consists of four levels. It's all about touch and experimentation as you amble through the museum and between its 250 exhibits.

One of the most popular attractions for kids consists of 100s of red rubber blocks for building in the Concourse. Piled in and among several other hands-on exhibits, the big blocks lets kids' imaginations run rampant as they build huge forts or just bury themselves completely. Other cool exhibits at the museum include a tornado generator, real ambulance for climbing in and around, periscope, climbing wall, shadow wall, television green screen, bubble capsule, and Google Liquid Galaxy map room.

The 4-die manual machine is located just past the gift shop by elevator . No admission fee necessary to use machine. Designs are:
1) Albert Einstein, "E+mc/2, ANN ARBOR HANDS ON MUSEUM"
2) Two handprints, "ANN ARBOR HANDS ON MUSEUM"
3) Five atom icons, "ANN ARBOR HANDS ON MUSEUM"
4) Five Interlocked gears, "ANN ARBOR HANDS ON MUSEUM."
