One of my favorite memories from being a kid was coming to Seattle on a field trip with my Summer camp. I remember driving on I-5 and seeing that first glimpse of the Seattle Skyline and getting so excited. I also remember the Science Center. Surprisingly I hadn't been back since those days way back when, not even with the kids. Today was the day that we made it happen though.
It didn't hurt that it was beautiful outside today! The sun was shining, we were in sweatshirts and everyone was out and about. Which means the Science Center was BUSY! The kids did pretty good entertaining themselves while we waited in lines though.
I couldn't believe that it looked exactly as I had remembered it! A few new things but so much was immediately familiar for me, including this dinosaur exhibit.
The kids enjoyed the water area.
And Yaya, Auntie Em and Miles explored the cause and effect room.
Next up was the Daft Punk laser show. I was super stoked for this as I had never been to one before and we just so happen to listen to a lot of Daft Punk in this house. So when the music came on and the very first song was Nolan's favorite, it loudly proclaimed "Hey! I know this song!" And for the last song the kiddos stood up and danced under the big top. I loved every second of it! Miles evidently wasn't as excited as he fell asleep right in the middle of everything. Auntie Em was in snuggling toddler heaven.
Waiting in line at the butterfly exhibit was also pretty entertaining. Can you see the butterflies checking us out?
Once inside, it didn't disappoint! SO. MANY. BUTTERFLIES!
One even landed on Yaya and the kids were able to thoroughly investigate it.
On the way back to the car, so much to see!
