The Whitney Museum

So I thought the Guggenheim museum was good. Hah - You must take your children to The Whitney Museum for the "Summer of Love" exhibit through Sept 15. There's a conversation room with fabric bumps and seating areas in rainbow colors. Several light shows. The light show she liked best was the blinking lights that make it look like you are moving at different speeds. She did not want to leave. The guard told us to check out the 4th floor with the mirror floor. I didn't get it but went.

So you see a mirror floor. So you say big deal. But watch a child look at the floor trying to understand why the people aren't falling down. You see the depth perception of the ceiling reflected on the floor and it totally confused her. She got down on her hands to make sure the floor was solid before she would step on the mirror. She would run a little and stop short to check the next area. -

Free tickets to the museum from the library - Priceless.
