Oot and Aboot in Seattle
















It is important to start your child's science education at an early age.

So this is why we brought Peanut to the Pacific Science Center. They have a traveling exhibit, Lucy, who is the 3.2 million year old fossil that is the earliest hominid found. 3.2 million years to the present will take a long time to cover, so that is why all Biology teachers surveyed * recommend starting evolutionary topics at 4 weeks old for babies. * We only had time to survey 1 Biology teacher, and it was me.

He was so excited about it, he slept the entire time. We tried to entice him with a chocolate vanilla cupcake on the way (that was a pain to jam into a bottle!), but sleep won out. We spent the majority of the time at the PSC feeding him, changing him, and the last 10% of the time involved quickly weaving through the interesting looking exhibit so we could actually view Lucy before a meltdown occurred and before the nasty general public shared germs with the boy.
