The Works

We visited The Works one afternoon. Here is the description according to their website...'The Works is a "hands-on, minds-on" museum that makes learning about engineering, science and technology interesting, understandable and fun.' I have to say, it was interesting, understandable and fun.

This was my favorite thing, the Light Harp. There aren't actual strings, but instead there are laser lights that allow you to play the notes. Very cool!

Everyones favorite 'Carnival' mirrors. No pictures of me in these things!
They had several exhibits on gears & gizmos, Nolan enjoyed trying all of those out.

There was also a building area where the kids spent a ton of time building cars to race and using foam blocks to build houses. It was a really neat place to visit, totally geared towards kids with stuff to interest the adults too.
