CuriOdyssey and more..

Science, animals, ocean front, warm sun with slight breezes, preschoolers on a field trip to the CuriOdyssey. What a great way to spend the day with PattyKakesKidz.  Not only did we have a great day out and about, but we also wrapped up our day with a little science of our own.  Check us out here where we show off how much fun we had together.
Walking into the museum, we were greeted with an Inka Biospheric System, where the koi fish pond provided nutrients to a panel of garden plants and the plants in turn filtered the water for the fish.  They help each other grow and exist.  There was bok choy, swiss chard, celery, parsley, morning glories and so much more.


Catching the Bobcats hugging and resting was a fun sight for the kids to see.
The kids were watching a road runner just after seeing a Snowy Egret.
We spent quite a bit of time watching the playful otters splashing and showing off for the kids.
Showing a friend how the friction can 
create this light.
The kids show just 
how cuddly and loving they are.
My favorite picture of our PattyKakesKidz.
Magnetism.
A great shot of the kids exploring 
in the halls.
After lunch, we walked to the local park 
and this was our view. 
After returning home, resting and having snacks, it was time for a little simple science.  The white stuff in front of the kids is shaving cream.  The containers hold water colors and droppers.  Watch when science and kids get together. 
 We didn't want to clean up everything and not have a memory of our science, so each child placed white construction paper on top of the foamy mess and made art.  What a full and wonderful day for us all.
Until next week....
