The Discovery Center

In the past two months we have been to the Discovery Center quite a few times. Every time the kids make something that they want me to take a picture of. So...here are a few of their latest & greatest.


For Dia de Los Reys (The day of the kings) we went to celebrate the wise men's arrival to see Jesus. The kids got to make crowns & have some of the "baby cake". The cake has a baby Jesus in it & if you find it it's good luck among other things. Sadly, no baby Jesus in the cake for us this year.


Eli & his very symmetrical crown.



Adrienne loves playing at the farm area of the water feature with any small animals she can find.


Adrienne & her very tall tower!


A shot of the inside.


The finished tower. She couldn't reach any higher.


Eli & his pirate ship. Remember the kid on Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium? This might not be Abe Lincoln out of Lincoln logs but I was pretty impressed.


Another side view.


The rear view of the ship & the Captain's quarters. Walk the plank matey!


The kids also got to design a quilt square, depicting what they could do to make the world a better place, for a quilt that is hanging up in the Discovery center.
Eli chose recycling as his platform.


"I will recycle!"


Adrienne of course, went with animal preservation as her platform.


"Be nice to animals."


Getting a little exercise.


Eli building another creation. This time it was a castle/fort.

My kids love to come here & I'm glad they have so many community days that are free. Yea for holidays!!
