Our Field Trip to Boston

Going to Boston was exciting!  There were many fun things to do at the  Boston Children's Museum.

There were things to climb.  The New Balance Climbing exhibit had floor mats and nets around it.  It went up to the ceiling which was VERY high!  It was like a maze.  When you got to the top you had to turn around and come down.  There was a climbing rock wall.  Chris made it all the way to number 10.  There was a place to climb in the Construction Zone.

The Kid Power exhibit was fun.  You could buckle your seatbelt and pull yourself up.  There was an applause when you came down.  Lots of us were able to make the lights go on by turning the crank.  We made a fan go on by turning a big 3-person crank.  There was a giant pulley that you let go and shot a tennis ball up to the ceiling.  Some of us got it to go to the very top!

 

Bubbles were extraordinary!  You could pull a big rope and make a giant bubble!  You could pick up a hula hoop and make a enormous bubbles that wiggled.

There was a fantastic music room.  You could drive a band bus and make the windshield wipers go.  You could use a microphone and sing on the stage.  You could conduct an orchestra.
