Seriously, folks, this is only a slice of what we did at the Science Center. We were there from 11:00-5:00 having all kinds of fun. Here's some of what we did:
Brayden looking at his chart, trying to identify different butterflies. I loved seeing all the tropical flowers.Todd is in "harmony" with nature :o)
We were playing giant checkers when the place was closing and we had to leave.
...So we went on a few carnival rides.
These were the walls of the women's restroom. Click to enlarge and read what it says--I thought it was hilarious.
These were hilarious, too. They are stuffed "germs". There's e-coli, mad cow disease, the common cold, head lice, salmonella, etc.
Todd threw this wiffle ball at 38 mph, and beat my lowly 21 mph.
Here is Todd, addicted to learning about addictive behavior.
Dillon's favorite was this giant three-tiered water table with water toys.
Caleb studying the butterflies
Brayden played tic-tac-toe with a giant robot. The robot won.
Caleb Loved this "backhoe" that he could work himself.
Todd's "grip strength" lit up the lights all the way to the top. I made it about half way up...
Shooting water guns at the targets
Todd in the hamster wheel
Playing virtual soccer!
If you look close, that's Brayden and Caleb on the screen
Caleb took this picture of Todd and I playing virtual soccer.
Todd forecasting the weather.
Giant table and chairs.
Riding the ferry into Seattle
Standing under the Space Needle. It would've cost our family $50 to ride to the top, and then you have to pay for food in the restaraunt in addition...we like our ground shots just fine :o)
Digging for dinosaur bones.
I made Todd get his picture taken next to the Therapod eggs. It just sounds like a "therapy nerd".
We watched a live boa constrictor demonstration.
We also saw an awesome 3-D IMAX movie, touched live sea anenomes, learned how toilets flush, and played around on a million other exhibits. As you can see, we had a great time.
