We decided to celebrate the first day of school...for everyone else...by heading to the Science Museum where we would be able to explore the exhibits and wander the halls by ourselves. It was wonderful.
The big boys took in the Omni Theatre movie about Arabia which led to a very interesting conversation about terrorism, perceptions, racism, a brief history of Afghanistan, and intolerance over lunch. I adore it that my kids think that all of these things are just ridiculous and wonder why anyone would hate someone for what they believe or the color of their skin. I really love that.
Everyone had a great time playing with the ping-pong balls and experimenting with air pressure. This is always one of our favorite exhibits and it never seems to get old.
