Louisville Science Center

We met the McAfee's this morning for a trip to the Louisville Science Center.
The temporary exhibit right now is about the human body and has a Sesame Street theme.
This part was telling kids how important exercise is and gave them the opportunity to kick a ball, jump, and hand pedal.
There was an obstacle course for preschoolers and toddlers.
Of course the Ellnor kids tried to destroy it by taking about all of the velcro pieces.
There was a little grocery store so the kids could shop for healthy foods. Grace opted for potatoes and bananas.
Jake was a good little shopper.
Sam and Gabriel used scanner to answer questions about the foods displayed.
Next, we went to the Kid Zone.
Gabriel and Grace looked at insects under microscopes.

Insects and food on the same table?? Grace and I couldn't quite figure this one out.
One of the highlights of the Kid Zone is the water table.
Gabriel had an ear ache, so he wasn't really enthusiastic about the water table.
Grace dumped water all over the floor then splashed in the water.
She really enjoyed the water table and wasn't ready to leave when the rest of our crew was.
Jake and Grace went from the water table to bubbles. At one point they both had the bubble wands in their mouths. Nice!
Gabriel really enjoyed this computer game where you created your own bicycle. He created a titanium bike that had hand pedals.
Jake and Grace were so cute looking at the skulls inside the showcase.
Our last stop was where the kids put themselves inside a bubble. Gabriel was adamant about doing this before we left the museum.
Jake and Sam got a bubble almost completely around them.

Thanks for the fun outing, Sam, Jake, and Alicia! We had a great morning!
