Going Green

The Science Center hosted a special celebration to promote taking care of the Earth. We were happy to join in the fun!

This was hilarious! The recycling bin had a motor that raised and lowered the lid...and talked. There was a person hiding behind a screen (who the kids obviously didn't see) who provided the voice via wireless mike, and talked to each of the children about recycling. Nicholas was fascinated.

Goodwill had a red carpet set up so kids could strut their stuff in costumes. I was a bit surprised Nicholas wasn't interested, but Charlotte sure looks like a little diva!

Later in the Discovery Room, Charlotte found plastic bacon in the food baskets in the tepee. I've never actually seen plastic bacon...

Nicholas ventured away from the car race tracks and built a marble race track for the first time

In a final green moment, my boys powered the ball machine by running on this big wheel. We all do what we can. :)
