Spencer spent a fun filled morning with his grandparents at the Skirball Cultural Center taking in the Noah's Ark exhibit. Everything in this exhibit could be touched, handled, and played with by the kids. There were life-size animals made out of found objects and recycled materials, a cool ramp where kids could place pairs of animals and than crank a wheel to drive them into the ark, and even sets of brooms and pans to clean up after the animals. It was amazing how popular that last activity was amongst the kids: they were clamoring over each other to get a broom and sweep up rubber poop. Located at the end of the exhibit was an art room where you could work on such projects as drawing, coloring, or assembling. Spencer made a bumblebee out of pipe cleaners (with a BIG assist from Grandpa) to give to his brother Nico when he got home.
