The kids won't really notice much until pretty soon before totality, so it's nice to have some activity to occupy them :)
Especially things like pinhole viewers to see the partial eclipse image without glasses.
- JKCalhoun 3y agoHeading to the southern end of the state or are you wandering down toward Texas?
- geerlingguy 3y agoSouthern MO. We'll risk the clouds to save a flight or a longer drive—hopefully we get clear skies! I have a friend down in Carbondale who's fortunate enough to be right in the middle of both eclipses. Was considering going there, but it'll be a larger family trip, and it was easier to load into a few hotel rooms in southern MO.
