"What If" Festival

What a great way to spend one of the last Saturday's of the summer. Downtown Colorado Springs had a "What If" Festival that focused on creativity, imagination and innovation. Even though all four of us have been suffering from the "funk," Lucy, Ethan and I went with Papa to the celebration.

All the letters spell out "INNOVATION," Ethan's in the 'O'

There were bubbles of all sizes, some came out of machines, some you made yourself

There was art that turned 3d when you put the glasses on

Amazing chalk art

A water balloon slingshot!

That's Ethan (with Papa's help) pulling it back. He hit the kids that were waiting to get splashed

and, certainly a highlight for my boy, ROBOTS!!

Ethan also got to make a fruit caterpillar (and eat it), dance to a live band, create his own coin, decorate a trick or treat bag, and watch someone creating a circuit board. Definitely worth getting out of the house for.
