Science Museum

We used our museum passes last Sunday to visit two great museums. The first of these was the Science Museum. This place is lots of fun. It is really geared to kids, but kids of all ages can enjoy it. There are four floors of hands-on, interactive demonstrations and experiments. It is very reminiscent of the Indianapolis Children's Museum but with the entire focus on science. 


We enjoyed the various areas and joined in on many of the experiments. The most impressive exhibit is a four story tall "machine" that does all types of energy demonstrations. It shows different types of energy ranging from pulleys to musical instruments. There were exhibits on human and animal science, weather, telecommunications throughout the years, shipping, nutrition, automobiles, city planning and more.











And of course, some of the best fun was watching the little ones enjoy their play time.
