Learning and Laughing at the Museum of Science

On a chilly day during the February vacation, 6 kids from the Casserly House community visited the Museum of Science together! They learned about the electric force through the engaging “Lightning!” show, and they experimented with light, heat, and physics through the interactive exhibits. A couple kids even tried lying on a bed of nails!

As we traveled back in the van, generously offered by our local E5 district police officers, the kids shared their favorite experiences at the museum. The electricity show was the most popular, but another highlight was the “robot dog” from Boston Dynamics.

Thank you, Museum of Science, for the free tickets, and thank you again, E5, for the transportation!
