Our Day at the Science Museum in Nashville


Today we spent the day in Nashville at the science museum. Mommie, Daddy and I started the day at McDonald's where we ate lunch. We had so much fun. Mommie and I climbed a jungle jim three stories high to the very top of the building to look out and see all of Nashville. It was a beautiful site. We (mommy and I) slid all the way to the bottom on a down a big blue slide. I wasn't sure Mommy was going to make it at first! I told her I was worried because we didn't have on our bathing suits. I thought it was like the slide at the beach with all the water! We went in the plantitarium where we saw lots of beautiful stars and watched a movie about a funny Rusty Rocket and the different planets. I told Mommy that " I don't like airplanes...I like horses best!" Mommy told me I needed to learn to appreciate the stars too. After we finished there we went to this really neat play house. You could see the insides of the walls. There were pipes, wires and insulation. It even had a door bell. I liked going upstairs and watching the TV there. Mommie and I put together a train track while Dad played with the ball digger thing. We then played with an auger that pulled little Styrofoam noodles up and then dropped them down a funnel into a barrel. It was very neat. They also had a section with musical instruments. There was a BIG guitar that Mom and I stood inside and played. There was a piano that we walked on and a pipe organ that you played with a hose. It was very loud. The last exhibit we went in was "THE BODY". This exhibit had every part of the body and allowed me to walk through the human body and learn how all the different parts worked. I really liked the brain, the circulatory system and the digestive system. When you went down the large intestines (big pink sliding board) it made a very loud tooter pooter sound. I laughed very HARD and thought this was very funny! They also had a big ambulance in the area. I loved driving it and working on patients in the back...My Daddy says I might be a doctor one day. After a snack in the refreshment area it was time to go home. We had so much fun playing, we hope to go back again next year!
