Museum of Science and Technology


 On the way into Chicago, we stopped at the Museum of Science and Technology. The girls really liked it (way more than The Field). They had fun playing in the kiddie section and exploring the entire place.
 This exhibit was "Fairy Land" or something. The girls thought they would be meeting princesses. When they found out it was a doll house they couldn't touch, they thought it was lame. 

The girls really liked the energy exhibit. We petaled on a bike and it took a picture of their shadows. They thought that was pretty cool.
 By far and away, Leah's favorite part of the museum was watching chicks hatch. She stayed for 20 minutes waiting for one particular chick to hatch. Juliet (and Chris) lost interest quick. It was really exciting for Leah. 

 There was an airplane you could get in, and Juliet thought that was pretty cool. I was totally weirded out by how much it still smelled like a plane. I hate that smell. 
 After a few near melt-downs, ice cream was in order. 
 Leah really liked this climbing wall. It took her a few times to get all the way across, but she was so excited when she finally did. She did it a few more times and had no problems at all! 
 Another cool part was there was a machine that actually made toys in front of you. Leah always asks how things are made, so it was pretty cool for her to watch the toy be made. Leah and Juliet each got one. It's kind of like a top.
