We went to the museum of Nature and discovered a special exhibit on the arctic!
Elizabeth got to learn about proper conservation techniques for dried flowers (tiny pieces of tape). She proudly brought home a sample and told Daddy we had to put it somewhere where it will last a hundred years... Hmm...
The kids made snow googles to prevent snow blindness, but Elizabeth didn't quite understand why sunglasses wouldn't do instead. And they got to measure themselves against a life size poster of bears. We were all surprised by how small black bears are (and polar bears are HUGE!!!)
