A Science Adventure




Yesterday we decided to tackle the adventure of the Ontario Science Centre.  It was a somewhat cool day and thought that being outside was not going to be enjoyable.  So, off we went.  
For all those with small children who think that this might be a good idea and an enjoyable time.  Think again...... A mid-weekday in the summer is not the ideal time to be going with your child.  There was TONS of camps there and so therefore lots of chaos.  I am all for free play but it was crazy.  With kids running everywhere with little supervision.  

Sam was able to do a few things but most of it was too old for him and those things for him where being played with by older children and he was unable to participate.  

Despite that we were able to see a few things and now know that we will wait a few years before going back.  I am thinking that sticking with the quiet activities like Strawberry Picking is more our style and pace.  With only a few weeks left we will be out again this weekend, getting our fill of berries.  Can you ever eat too many berries??
