Hands-on museum

The Fairbanks Children's Museum holds a roving hands-on exhibit just about once a month.  We were out of town for the one last month.  We were lucky to have one today when it's forty below outside.  Jack was feeling a lot better today after sleeping most of yesterday evening so we decided to get out.  The $5 admission was well worth it and I'm glad we got there right when it opened.  And hour and a half later when I had to drag my little boy out of there the crowd had gone from a few to over a hundred toddlers.  The only thing that could have made this event better was a martini bar. 

You would have thought this was the
only toy in the place when we first got there.
Jack didn't want to let it go.

Magnet table. Surpirsingly none went in his mouth.

Water beads. These things reminded me of
salmon eggs but were so cool. 

Who knew food-colored rice could be so much fun
