My little worker bees

This is a new exhibit at the OK Science Museum.  It is all about building things.  I really like how they made this area for the kids!  It is all hands on!  They love it, too.  Turns out, Nick is quite the foreman!  And Stella was the #2 on the worksite! Naturally.
Before we got to this play area, it was just your regular run-of-the-mill play structure.  You know, kids running all about, bricks just doing any old thing, lots of chaos, noise...the regular stuff.

OK, do you see the wall of bricks?  All those orange and red and yellow blocks stacked up to the second level?  WELL, as you can possibly imagine, those weren't there before my kids got on this thing.  Pretty sure that Nick, with the enthusiastic support of Stella (which may or may not have included telling that boy not to touch the rope)...got that wall built.  Yep.  My kids, somehow, organized a child workforce to construct a "two-story" wall of foam bricks.  Do you see all the workers falling into line?  Look.


They even convinced Henry...


He's a quick study...


SO Funny!!!!!!!

Oh, and please excuse the photos.  The out-of-the-old-iPhone-camera shots were weird so I added a cross process to them.  They look a bit funky but better than the originals.  These at least look artsy.  Maybe.

That is so cute!!! They want to study civil engineering, too. If only materials lab had been that fun in school :)
