Mr. Kringle's Inventionasium!



The day before Christmas Eve we were able to take the kids to see Mr. Kringle at Kringle's Inventionasium. It was so cool, the kids loved it! I loved it! They did such a good job making it all so animated. Their acting, costumes, decor, everything!

We started out with our own little tour guide elf. They gave Jaden a lab coat (KynnLee didn't want anything to do with it), then they brought us to this cute little room, the Brainstorming Department. The kids got to play with that play foam stuff on the plates. The Elf helped them think of new toys to invent. Jaden wanted a walking pillow, and KynnLee wanted a flying blanket. Funny little people! So Jaden made his pillow and put legs and feet on it, and KynnLee made her blanket with wings. Then they smashed their inventions onto the plate to send them on down to the factory. :)

Next was the Sound Effects Department (which mom failed to get a picture of). They had the cute elf, Audio, help out with it. KynnLee was terrified of Audio. But he gave us a basket of different noise makers and the kids got their own noise maker and then got to pick toys for their noise.

Then our elf brought us to the Color Mixing Laboratory where the kids got to play with color paddles to mix colors, and create new ones.




Then we went to the Toy Engineering department and the kids got to play with these little Jawbones pieces that snap together to create new toys.
And this is us having fun while waiting our turn to see Mr. Kringle.


KynnLee LOVED this piano! I couldn't keep her away from it! I can't say I blame her, look how cute it is! Doesn't she look like a natural? :) We'll have to get started on piano lessons.

Random fun times!

I just have some random pictures I wanted to post...

Jaden and mom enjoying some chocolate, and being a little goofy ....



Dad caught KynnLee laying on the couch and playing with her feet. What a cute little girl!!


I just couldn't resist some pics of my little princess all dressed up for church.


Jaden had spirit week at school. One of the days was hat day, this is the hat he chose... :)

One night during finals, I was seriously out of the room for like 3 minutes. I come back and KynnLee had got out the sugar and was dipping her fingers in it!! I don't even know how she knew what it was!
How bad is it that I let her keep doing it while I got the camera!?!?!?! It wasn't long before Jaden joined in too.

Crazy kids!
