April 21, 2009

lately, it seems that rainy days mean a trip to a museum.... and we seem to discover new things each time we go! :)

woo-hoo! another trip to the science museum!

look, it's time to go explore!

canoe believe this exhibit?

the trains!

these trains are wheely big!

i want to be an engineer!

all aboard!

trying to figure out the train safety game.

next destination... space!

we're going on a trip... in a rocket ship!

sam moves in a little closer to learn 'how de we study space?'

hey... i think that guy is trying to teach me something.

are those the satelites that our GPS uses?

christopher is all about the learning!

match the ground photo with the satelite photo game!

there was lightning in those clouds!

time to get dressed... but for what?

a weather station

sammy gets a video call.... beeep... call waiting...

it's christopher!

time to blast off!

a future astronaut?

christopher has to stop and examine each globe he sees.

all about pulleys!

can't forget to take a ride on the skidoo simulator ride!

and play some virtual games

there is even a virtual colouring activity!

sammy doesn't like christopher being a back seat driver...
especially when there is no back seat!

whoa!

piano lessons?

cool... check out my hands!

exploring deep inside a "cave"

christopher checking out the "old" technology!

this display was "waving" to christopher, so he had to go check it out.

one ringy-dingy-dingy... two ringy-dingy-dingy...

what is this?... a digital network!

sam and christopher head up to explore it!

the lights were very exciting!

the kids help each other navigate through the digital network

the cellular net-work.

sam demonstrates how signals "swing" from tower to tower

hey i see the car... i guess it's time to go!
