Wonderworks...

In Pigeon Forge, Tn, there is a unique museum called Wonderworks... It is a children's paradise for hands-on learning...For the past few years,  they have offered a free admission to homeschool families in the area (with your teacher ID from an umbrella school)...

It is a great opportunity and we try and take advantage of it every year.. They have an inversion tunnel which puts me in a "semi-euphoric" state trying to walk through it... An illusion gallery, a space area, climbing wall, a great wind tunnel, an "Earthquake Cafe" with lots of shaking going on... and an area for light and sound...

It is always a really a cool experience and we had a great time again this year!!

  1. that tunnel was the most amazing part of the entire place for our family! The girls and I kept walking back and forth threw it, trying to stand up straight. It was wild. The kids found it easier than I did and dh just stood at one end and laughed :)
