Mid America Science Museum

Karen, Logan and Kayleigh arrived in Little Rock on Saturday night for a week's visit in HSV. Today (Monday) the kids attended their first day of swim classes. After class we went to the DeSoto recreational area for a quick picnic and play on the toys. We then drove to Hot Springs and the Mid America Science Museum. The shadow wall was neat. Any guesses as to whom these shadows belong to?

Next we went to the area where you could draw pictures and put them in a spinning device to make a movie. Kayleigh is getting her pictures ready for a movie.

Kids (or adults) can build paths for marbles to work their way down. Logan enjoyed doing a bit of engineering.

There was also a demonstration where you used a robot arm to pick up a coin. I tried twice and failed. Karen got a coin on the first try. Great job!

The kids also got to play paleontologist and look for "dinosaur " bones. Logan and Kayleigh are hard at work.

Gram also enjoyed the hunt!

The kids and Gram really enjoyed the underground Arkansas exhibit. They're ready to head in for their second trip of the day.

Kayleigh enjoyed learning about Bernoulli's principal or at least watching the ball hover in the air.

We all had a great time at MASM. After the museum we drove to Mooyah! for burgers and fries - very tasty! Stay tuned for more exciting adventures.
