Grossology - Science Center Field Trip

Our Home-school group took a tour at the Baltimore Science Center, called Grossology. "The attraction is based on the 'Children's best Selling' book 'Grossology' by Sylvia Branzei. It explores all the slimy, mushy, oozy, scaly and stinky gross (yet scientific) things that occur everyday in the human body. The kids love the 'gross stuff' and us parents like the scientific explanations."

Josh, climbing through the large intestine...yes, that's POO!
This man is up to NO GOOD! He learned that most people pass gas on the average of 14 times per day. All day today, HE'S BEEN COUNTING!

Laura and Amber learing about the Digestive System, and stomach noises!

Shawn & Scott, hanging around picking their noses, again!

Nothing but FRESH BREATH here!

Dylan laying on a bed of NAILS! OUCH!
Some (of the stranger ones) in our ABC Homeschool Group! Hee! Hee!

Learning about Fossils!

At last, Shawn has seen a twister!

Yes, but I regret taking my husband! Now anything "gross" thing that happens, he hollers "grossology!" Like it's allowed or something! These kids are growing! Our "Patch" kids are all in the teen group now! I'll have to get some teen group pictures when I get a chance! LOL! Me

What a great time we had at grossology! Too bad it was cut a little short due to the "blackout"...lol. Kim, you are so faithful with your pics! Thanks for sharing them.

Hey Laura! Thank You for being BRAVE enough to leave a comment on my blog! Everyone either emails me personally, or talks to me about it in person, so I know people are checking it. Love our field trips together...they're ALWAYS an adventure (to say the least!) LOL

Ephesians 3:14-19

"For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height - to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God. Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, for ever and ever. Amen."
