I took Friday off to spend with the kids and Aunt Tara. We were hoping to go to the Gardens or some place bigger, but our choices were limited by the rain. So we decided to head out to the Children's Museum. This was the first time any of us had gone. Maia started whining right as we got there, she was absolutely positive she did not want to go. Fortunately, the three-and-a-half year old doesn't make the decisions... and the moment we walked in, Tara and I got a chuckle about the amazed looks on their little faces. We got the typical emphatic nod from Maia and Parker's pointy finger was fully extended.
So what to do first!?!
Parker wanted to check out the trains...
... and they were both very excited about the bubble tables.
Parker sang me a song.
And Maia banged out a tune.
There were science experiments
This table helped us learn about gravity and axles.
Parker learned about gravity, too, by stacking odd shaped pieces of polished wood and letting them topple over.
Maia LOVED pretending in the Dentist's office.
And Parker thought this mirror tube was pretty cool.
Maia whipped up a tasty lunch while Parker did some grocery shopping.
But Parker could have played with this thing all day. Video coming!
Maia explored a light table with transluscent building pieces.
And Parker ran through this barn approximately 15098 times.
At the end, when it was time for lunch and naps, we dropped a few pennies in the wishing well,
and Maia wished, Wished, WISHED that we could come back again!
