A few weeks ago I was lucky enough to go as an extra leader to a sleepover with two guide units and a pathfinder unit at the science centre! It was a lot of fun and I thought I would share a few pictures with you about my night. Enjoy!
Trying to get the attention of 55+ girls is quite a challenge, especially when they are so excited to get their sleepover started!
Just setting the table on fire with colourful flames... no big deal.
Actually it is a huge deal! You could have heard a pin drop while the girls were watching and participating in this science demonstration. Yay science!

The feature exhibit was all about animatronics and their use in film (aka the place in which Shannon geeks out over a burnt up parrot from Peter Pan and other cinematic wonders) there were trunks all around with different travel stickers and this one was my favourite. It is just so cool to see NeverEverEverLand on a London tube sign! Where can I get a ticket to there?
There was also this really cool Titanic one that I had to take a picture of. No Titanic animatronics though. :(
Warning! The next few pictures show leaders having fun! That can happen you know! All of the girls who were walking past us just shook their heads and looked very embarrassed (also known as Mission Accomplished!)

Here we are imitating the polar bear and yeti (?) in the background talking on an old Nokia phone. . Has anyone seen the movie these are from? I don't understand...
Another imitation- we should basically just get all the parts in the movies.
The good thing about going to the science centre when it is not open to the general public is that you can go in the discovery area if you are over the age of 8!
As you can see fun was had by leaders and girls alike. Their house turned out pretty cool!
The next morning the girls got to solve a crime in the forensics lab and play around with the lights and sirens on the police car.
To finish there was a snake. It was a pretty cool snake that a lot of the girls got to hold. Overall it was a great sleepover!
