Thursday it rained again so we went to the Air and Space Museum. They have a great children's area!! A young man made gliders with the girls which they few off of the steps "almost as far as his!" They had these giant blocks that the girls LOVED building a house with. Then Maggie played with her glider while Mena went to the bathroom. Mena explored traffic control on the computer while Maggie explored the xylophone, trains, and earthquake machine. Maggie worked really hard to put together a building with blocks and pins that wouldn't fall down when the plate shook.
Neither of the girls wanted their picture taken in an astronaut cut out, but Maggie was fascinated with the cut out of Clayton Anderson, the astronaut from Ashland. She was also very interested in watching the music video about NASA's Johnson Space Center. The song and man were so dorky, but he showed a lot of what happens at the station in a fun way! Maggie watched it twice or maybe three times while Mena and I explored nearby. She even was dancing to it in front of the tv behind Clayton Anderson's cut out.
