We had a good time despite the crowds. The museum is divided into 6 different exhibits, each a self-contained room so that I felt comfortable giving the older three some freedom in wandering around. Surprisingly, the windows were the most interesting, fun places in one of the rooms.
There were a lot of other fun things to do as well. Like have a car race,
try to stack nails,
follow a ball through an obstacle course,
whack a dummy head with a huge mallet,
explore space,
form a square,
or draft a new invention.
But the kids all agree that their very favorite activity was the ball race, wherein the ball was powered by the mind.
Our day through science ended with a 3D movie on the journey the not yet released Boeing 787 has taken from dream to reality.
And my favorite moment? This one...by a mile.

We love our science museum! Unfortunately our membership just expired and we're not renewing right now b/c we have a Natural History museum membership and we just decided to wait to spend the money on the science one. Looks like you guys had a good time.
Looks like they had a great day! Love your blue shots. Very cool. :)
I remember loving the science museum in school... but was disappointed visiting as an adult... :( Maybe that's cause I'm just not science minded and was so disappointed that the tickets to the imax movie I wanted to see were $20 each and I was NOT willing to fork over that much money.....
but it looks like you all had fun!! :)
Love these, you look like you all had so much fun!
I love science museums! This looks like a really cool one. Such concentration for the ball race! ;) And I love the last shot, too.
Oh, gosh yeah. What a sweet capture! Your kids are adorable. Looking through the pics makes me want to schedule a trip to a science museum and fast. :)
I was just sitting here, sipping my coffee and thinking about weekend plans. We bought a membership to a museum but have not yet used it...wonder if the girls are up for it??
