Nobody realizes how cool it is to be a kid until they aren’t one anymore. To wit: the arrival at the perpetually innovative and creative Discovery Science Center of Bob the Builder. The kids can plant play flowers, build and use kid tools, lay stones in the walls of the machine team’s shelter to build stalls in which Roley, Scoop, Benny, Muck and Scrambler can sleep, and meet Bob the Builder and Wendy too! Inspired by the PBS series, Bob the Builder allows kids to replicate fix-it activities and walk away with the feeling we all wish we had at the end of the day: that they’ve created something.
