Egyptology

I was amazed at how strong Jenna was when she started lifting those very heavy blocks on her own. She was very driven and focused, too.
Those blocks were heavy. We were impressed at how much work the Egyptians had to endure when building those awe-inspiring pyramids.
This exhibit showed how difficult it was using less-efficient equipment to lift the heavy blocks used in creating pyramids. A single pulley is not as effective as a double, or even a triple pulley. The more mechanics carrying and easing the weight, the less weight on the human.
Jackson and Jeremiah 'built' their names using hieroglyphics.
Jackson, Jeremiah and Jenna morphed into little Egyptians. The Little Mummy is too cute!
Jeremiah was fascinated with the Egyptian Riddles and Puzzles.
I was impressed that Jeremiah and Jackson were able to solve all of the puzzles and riddles in this area.
