The Day We “Discovered” Boise

Kate Brooke & Calvin at Discovery Center 5-29-10aKate Brooke & Calvin at Discovery Center 5-29-10bRani and I took the kids for a fun-filled afternoon at “The Discovery Center of Idaho.”  They loved checking out all the cool experiments and exhibits together.

They loved the bubble maker – Katelyn was in charge of making the bubbles and Calvin and Brooke took care of popping them.

One of their favorite activities however was the grocery store play area.  They spent lots of time being the shoppers and the checkers and made some new friends in the process.

I thought this chair was so cool – the kids loved it too and had a great time hoisting each other to the top.
