Hands-on Museum in Johnson City, TN

After "Christmas morning", we went to the Hands-On Museum in Johnson City. Isaac had a great time with Grandma, Grandpa, Mom and Dad.


The very first exhibit was a very tall treehouse - Isaac climbed right up!

Such a big boy!

This one was his favorite - first, you take a golf ball and throw it in the huge funnel...

...Then the golf ball would circle around and around until it fell out of sight. We came back to this one several times!

Flying an airplane...


...or not.

This was the dinosaur exhibit. Isaac was very brave until the life-sized T-Rex started roaring at him...

...fortunately, Grandpa came to the rescue!

"Digging" for "fossils"

There were lots of buttons on this display - they made the robot-dinosaur move around and roar...Isaac liked this part!

This is probably what Beethoven looked like as a toddler...

Isaac got to pet an iguana.

Whew. Lots of fun, but we're exhausted!
