Chicago's Museum of Science & Industry


Many of Chicago's museums are offering free admission this month.  With only a half day of school on Friday the girls were up for an adventure to the Chicago Museum of Science & Industry.

It is IMMENSE.  With a train and a 747 in the lobby the museum manages to make you feel small in the face of science and yet awed at the power of exploration and discovery.  The sensory onslaught was a bit tiring for the wee ones, but Jason and I could have explored all day.  If you go, don't miss the weather exhibit or the body exhibit.  You can watch your heart beat or make a tornado.

  2. The train is just like the one I used to ride from Kansas City to Chicago with Mon & Dad many years ago. It was great fun.
