S is for Science Centre
Very exciting to venture out to Toronto’s inner suburbs today and visit The Ontario Science Centre. Partly because we get to mark off another letter in our Big City ABC project, of course. Though, sadly, Allan Moak’s illustration cannot be re-created because they’ve stopped letting kids touch that electrifying silver ball that makes your hair stand on end and maybe causes cardiac arrest. Silver ball has been replaced with the most fantastic kids play area I’ve ever seen, however, and Harriet and her friend Finn loved everything they came across (the water play area in particular) and eventually had to be removed screaming from the facility because they weren’t finished with the fun yet, but, alas, we had to get them home for nap time.
