Children explore lungs and airways at World of Wonders Science Museum

Joanne Bergstresser watched two of her children closely as they investigated a series of buckets representing the stages of an asthma attack. Both 6-year-old boys were blond and wore small blue eyeglasses as they giggled and called to each other about their discoveries.

The kids were happy to bounce around, but mom was keeping an eye on their breathing just in case either boy might need a dose of albuterol, an asthma medication. The twins have asthma in common, along with their cherry faces and enthusiasm.
