Sony Wonder Technology Lab

The second part of our super fun day included going to Sony Wonder Technology Labs.  I've been meaning to go to this place for years and years.  Recently, someone in my local homeschooling on-line group set up a trip there.  Unfortunately, we couldn't make it at that time, but it reminded me to finally go.

According to their website:   Sony Wonder Technology Lab is a FREE technology and entertaiment museum for all ages.  Explore exciting interactive exhibits in a dynamic state-of-the-art facility that brings technology and creativity together to make learning experiential, entertaining and fun.

The trick is to make reservations up to two weeks in advance.  If you don't, you risk not getting in, especially on busy holidays or schools out days.  Call for more info on tickets.  It's located in midtown Manhattan at East 56th Street and Madison Avenue.  

There are four floors of fun and technology.  Interactive computers teach about how computers, technology, and computer imaging work, but in original hands on ways that was loads of fun.  

Check out the kids below "catching" the computer rain with their shadows.  This was so cool and the highlight of the trip for us.



Even though it was after 5pm when we left, we still had lots more day to do.  A gymnastics class for one child then a family birthday celebration.  What a fun and filled day!!  (Just the way I like it!)
