While Grammy was on vacation and Aunt Jilly was still on summer break we visited the Science Center. Last year Hayden and I went with Dede, Dianna and Kayla. This time around the Elmo exhibit was on display and pretty neat. It was very interactive and taught basics such as hygiene, be it washing hands and brushing teeth. There were displays teaching about the body and what the body does such as the heart, lungs, digestive system, musculoskeletal system and so forth. There was even a display that showed how you eat your food and into the stomach it goes before making its way to the intestines and then out of your body in the form of poop. Yes it was actually a turd that started moving when you pulled the lever and I'll spare you the picture. A bit much but very accurate I guess. There was a little market the kids could shop at and a diner where you could make a hamburger minus the burger. The rest of the museum was disappointing. Although it was neat to see how lava lamps work and Hayden was able to do a science experiment with oil, water and food coloring. There was quite a bit that was not age appropriate for Hayden and the other kid zone that was kid friendly was missing pieces and what they did have wasn't all working. I was overall disappointed with the museum except for the Elmo exhibit which is in town for a few months. I would like to definitely check out the Cincinnati and Indianapolis museums. Maybe when mom retires next year she can go with us to Indianapolis and one weekend we are hoping to visit Keith and Emily and check out Cincinnati’s.
