Sci-Works!

 We just LOVE science museums!!!

Seriously.  Where else could you put your head in a T-Rex's mouth. :)


Or run through a hollow tree and slide till your hearts content?




The kids get so competitive with each other and themselves, solving all the fun mind-benders and puzzles.



Watching physics is SO much more fun, than reading about it, right?!




Whether it is lifting yourself with air, or turning your self with momentum.....



This guy was so great!  He took his time with kids, to show them how and explain why these experiments  work the way they do.


Then, of course, we have to get totally grossed out by the hissing cock-roaches......



I felt like we were intruding on the wise ole' owl......
(he would just peak at us!)



The raccoon made us smile....



And this guy, was just creepy!




There was a section about the human body that was so interesting and fun.

Literally, looking at all the parts of an eye.




Playing 'Operation' BIG-kid style!



LOVE this piano!  Parker could NOT stop running on it........back and forth, back and forth.....




The 'Little People' section was too cute!  Emily had fun shopping through the store and ringing up all her food. :)  Parker was persistently trying to build a ramp system that would not drop the ball.




But, the really cool part, was when one of the employees brought out an enormous Boa Constrictor!  I was COVERED in chills.... All the kids got to pet him, too.  (I just braved it and took a picture) HA!




Give 'em a hand!



It was a fun day at the Sci-works Museum in Winston-Salem, NC.


Blessings,
Steph
