Science is Fun!
On the morning of G's birthday, I asked her what she wanted to go see and she said "See Rah!" (i.e. See the Dinosaurs!) So we took her to the Lawrence Hall of Science, which is one of her favorite places to go because of this:
There is also a large room with more dinosaurs, but it's designed to be pretty scary and she won't go in there. Instead, she had fun learning about lots of other sciency stuff, like gravity:
And archeology:
And one of her other favorite things, the moon:
The big globe in the middle of the room is controlled by the touchscreen Genevieve is using. She quickly figured out how to set it to display the moon and then she would get down and run around in circles around it. When other kids would come in and change it to display the Earth or another planet, she would eye them angrily until they left and then run over and change it back to the moon.
But the highlight of the day was hearing another kid, who was playing with a wind tunnel in the activities room, yell "Science is Fun!"

Happy Birthday G!! You're getting so big!
My brother and I *loved* the Lawrence Hall of Science growing up! The dinosaurs were so cool. And they have such fun activities. If you time it right, they have little classes downstairs. Or at least, they did 20-odd years ago...
