This summer we went to the Corning Glass Museum in upstate New York ... and did not break anything while we were there...
Watching a demonstration of how they made glass beads/ bowls in the (1600's ?)... I don't remember exactly what era this was... but... a fascinating process!

Looking at so many pretty glass objects from the 1600-1700's... all behind glass... and keeping Braeden contained... can we say Bull in a china shop... YIKES!!!
From the late 1800's....
Glass Music Instruments... including a glass flute... from the 1700-1800 hundreds...
Glass Science instruments...
Looking through a telescope at the City of Corning...
Looking through the glass... for special effect...
We got to watch a live showing of how they make glass mugs... so fun... and interesting... we got to watch from the beginning where they have a glob of melted glass... to the end...after they have shaped it and added color...
Putting the handle on the mug...
