Adding to the Summer Bucket List

We went to the Science Center a few weeks ago and had a blast!!  I'll let the pictures tell most of the story.  We'll be going back soon :-)

In one of the rooms they had tape and cardboard scraps for the kids to make sailboats and then see if they would float in the water table.  They all did for at least a little bit!

Elsie fell in love with the turtles.  Big, small.  It didn't matter.  When we found a turtle we were stuck there for quite a while!

The butterflies, of course, were a big hit.  They sprayed some sugar water on a couple of our fingers to attract the butterflies.  One landed on Ava pretty much right away.  It took some patience to get one for Elsie but we did get one!  (Jon was able to come join us for a bit.)

The exhibit room was a lot of fun!  Ava could have spent HOURS in there.  She was especially fascinated by the tangled rope course.  You put a rope around your waste and then hooked it to the corresponding color in the course.  You then had to crawl/climb up and over and through so you didn't get tangled with the other colors.  She LOVED it and was surprisingly good at it.

More fun exploring.

My favorite caterpillar and butterfly!
