I hope your kids came home as excited as I did after our field trip to The Detroit Science Center. I had not been there since my daughter was in 3rd grade and I was amazed at the changes they have made. There is plenty of hands-on activities to do that cover many facets of science. I think the favorite was the music room that allowed the kids to sing and play guitar and drums. (Who would have thought that science and music are related? lol) Another favorite was the 4-D Engineering Theater. What a wild ride that was (and wet, too!). Thanks to all who chaperoned - you did a great job and the kids certainly did a great job representing St. Pius X School!
