A Trip to the Mid-America Science Museum

So I've been wanting to take Austin to a museum where you get to TOUCH EVERYTHING!  So when I thought about taking a trip to Hot Springs for the day this past weekend, I googled things for children to do there.  Among the Alligator Farm and Garvin Gardens, there was the MASM!  Here are some pictures from Austin's experience at the museum.

His favorite place!  OUTSIDE!

Looking at the water

Daddy and Austin playing with the two way mirror

Seeing what the button does at the solar powered windmill

Through the telescope

This was about as excited as he got about electricity

Neon!

One of the few things that got him to stand still for a minute

My musical boy

Launching the hot air balloon

The earthworm tunnel and slide.  Also very popular that day.

Believe it or not, we were there for 3 hours and he didn't fall asleep on the hour and a half drive home until the last 5 minutes.  He had a blast and we were all exhausted by the time we got home.
