Week 10 Alphabet Summer 2011: I and S

We easily bridged the B and Q week over to S and I by slipping off to the Science Museum of Minnesota in St. Paul with our friends Melissa, her son Bray and his little sister Ella.  We started our visit by bouncing up and down the stairs that make sounds . I remember these from when I was a kid and visited the Science Museum for school field trips. The kids enjoyed nearly every exhibit but the one about the body made me feel kind of sick.   They especially loved seeing their shadows during the spectrum exhibit. We loved playing in the Big Back Yard’s maze.  I ran into the building and climbed many steps up a few stories to take this picture of the kid’s in the maze where they looked so small . Our little friend Ella got soaking wet while playing with the water exhibit in the back yard. Maddie continued her second and last week of swimming camp at a super cool swim center where the topic of the week was science . The kids studied various aspects of science
