Lizards & Snakes!! 2/14/12

 We went to see the new 'Lizards and Snakes' exhibit yesterday at the Museum of Nature and Science. It was full of live snakes and lizards, including a python, cobras, gila monster, and lots of other creepy and poisonous things that I'm glad were on the other side of the glass! They took these cute pictures with the anaconda image for free for anyone that wanted to pose.

 On our way in! Harrison was very excited...but, I think Declan was just cold.


 After checking out all of the snakes and lizards, we stopped at the 'Kid's Zone' to play and explore. Our first stop was coloring dinosaurs and snakes.

 Harrison spent some time digging for dinosaur bones...

 ...while Declan tried to build a house!

 Then, Harrison participated in his first science experiment! They made goo!! I'm not sure what the commercial name is for it, but I know I have seen something like it before...gooey and stretchy gel-like stuff with glitter mixed in.

While Harrison was doing his science experiment, Declan and I played with all the puzzles...and he spent some time helping one of the volunteers play the piano, as well. It was a fun day!!
