Sideways, spinning and drenched
by Tore
I decided on a whim to take Eskild with me to the Experimentarium, which is a hybrid museum and playground for the natural sciences.
They label themselves as a science centre, which is pretty accurate if you ask me.
The main thing is that it’s good fun. Everything is really hands on and there’s a tonne of stuff to actually do.
It’s great for the younger kids, since there really are few things you can’t touch. Which is also relaxing for us parents since we don’t have to be wearing our parental radar helmets all the time here.
Also it was hot today despite it being overcast and even though they’ve opened up a beach just a few kilometres from my appartment, the water is still absolutely, horribly not warm enough to swim in. At least for a bastard like me who learned to swim in pools cooled down to 26˚C in Kuwait.
Luckyly there are several huge water installations to mess about with – and get appropriately wet when playing with.
