Beasts, Robots and Gears

This will be short and sweet....I had a Dr. appt in Baltimore this morning so we decided to spend the afternoon at the Maryland Science Center, again.  The kids are becoming quite comfortable since we are there so much. I notice them spending more in-depth time with some of the exibits, instead of just running to see what is next. Retta had fun showing Dad around, as he usually doesn't get to go with us.

Retta and I had fun showing Dad and Musa up, as we made a robotic car (I couldn't have done it without Retta) and had it running before they could even get the tires on theirs. The look on Musa's face was priceless....GIRLS RULE!

When we got home there was a large package waiting for us....it is a huge gear set and elecrical circuit maker. The kids were so excited. Retta immediately started building. We can't wait to really dig in tomorrow.

Retta just told me that we needed to get to bed because tomorrow at 1pm Maggie and the Ferocious Beast are coming for a picnic and Hamilton the Pig and Henry the Penguin might be here and want some fish sticks.......gotta go.....

Enjoyed this entry as well as the one below. I hope that the Picnic turns out nicely and that all have a great weekend. I hope we get t see some pictures of what Retta and Musa create with the gear set and what experiments they have with the electrical circuit maker. What a fun way to gain knowledge.
