All Kinds of Fun

The National Association of Women in Construction (NAWIC) are sponsoring a Kid Event at the local Boys and Girls Club here in South Bend and I get to be a judge for part of the fun building competition! Each participant gets 100 interlocking type blocks and up to 3 of the following items: a small rock about 2" long, an 18" x 18" square of tin foil, a 12" long piece of string or a 12" x 12" piece of poster board. This promises to be very interesting. My sister will also be a judge.



After this event my nieces and I will head over to the Main library for the afternoon events of "Science Alive." The 2:30 program is Service Dogs on the Go presented by Paws with a Cause and we get to meet Magic and his trainer.


At 3:30 is the big one - Eye to Eye with Indiana's Creepy Crawlers, meeting with snakes, frogs and lizards. Even though the Science demos were in the morning there will still be science demos and projects happening in several rooms including a Dino dig, Stars and Stellar art projects, Kids Astro Camp and QuarkNet Physics activities.

Science Alive has been presented the first Saturday in Feb. for 15 years. It is always a good time! Since both girls want to go into some kind of work with science and animals (what kid doesn't want to be a vet?) this is very good for them. While we are there I'll get a movie for our pizza and movie night. I love it when a plan comes together!
