we started our 4th
by visiting the museum of science and industry
it's been a long time since we've taken the boys there
and they are at a great age for it!
my favorite area of the museum was the chemistry
and weather section
there were a lot of hands on experiments
they got to go in a wind tunnel showing the force of hurricane winds
create 'bucket lists'
and explore different aspects of the human body
one area that was really interesting
was the area that shows the details that a baby has
at different stages during pregnancy
it is amazing to see how real they look
and how many distinct features they have
even when they are SO very tiny!
we explored the full size plane
the cable cars
and the fabulous model train set up they have
the boys LOVED the U-505 submarine exhibit
unfortunately there were no tours available to go inside of the sub
while we were there
but the boys wanted to watch the movies
and learn about it
and found it very interesting
ALMOST as interesting
as how hard it is to get set up to milk a cow
i don't foresee any of them getting asked to be a milker pit crew member anytime soon
