Take your kids to work day

Today was Max first opportunity to go to work with me for this yearly event. They were both excited; what kid isn’t excited at the chance to miss a day of school while healthy.

Work had a couple different things going on and I don’t really have a team in Gaithersburg anymore. So it was a bit of a different day then the previous experience Ellie had. They did one teleconference with me and drew on the board during that time. 

After that I checked them into the kids event to make slime. Parents were supposed to leave. The kids didn’t want to do it alone they were hoping I’d be with them. After slime I decided to check them out and take them to lunch myself. The cafe was crazy. There must have been 1000 kids there today. 

After lunch we visited the game room and saw Venkat and his daughter. They visited the game room. This might have been there favorite part of the day. After that we tried to learn about animals in the lab. That was a little rocky. We finished the day by spending their gift card at the store and having some candy. This probably made them the most happy. I’m not convinced they learned much. Oh well. It was nice spending the day with them.
