Exploration Place

We went to Exploration Place in Wichita... So fun! I hope everyone who goes to Wichita goes here because it is amazing! Here are a bunch of pictures and a couple videos of our favorite things at Exploration Place!

They had a cool castle where you could dress up as someone who lived in this time period... then you could explore the castle (which was totally cool!) Bella dressed up as a knight. This is her making her "dragon fighting" face!

This was a really cool light wall... anywhere you touched it, it would light up. Bella enjoyed this one for quite a while!


Arabella being a Kansas Sunflower (apparently this is the state flower)


Making music with Grandma - they had a TON of different exhibits where kids could make their own music! These were Grandma's favorites!


This is a Mesosaurus... a dinosaur fossil! Bella's favorite part was touching this fossil! She's very excited to show these pictures to her friend Owen (who shares her love of Dinosaurs)!


Using the bellows to create fire - the picture didn't capture it, but it really does make "fire" in the oven!


Grandma and Bella standing in the tornado maker... right next to this exhibit was a tornado simulator that you step in and it has winds at 79 mph which is the same as an F1 tornado. I didn't get a video of that, but it was really cool!



Bella loved seeing the live animals at Exploration Place. This one was some kind of bullfrog. I said, "hi bullfrog." Bella informed me that, "bullfrogs do not say hi. They say ribbit." So here's the video I got of her "talking" to the frog.
