For Christmas Greg's Aunt's Mary and Kathy and Uncle Charlie renewed our family membership to the Children's Museum. Since then we have gone about 4 or 5 times. It is such a great activity for a Sunday morning. We have found that if you get there when they open on Sunday that there is hardly anyone there. That way we can play until lunch and then head out when it gets busy! The picture above is Morgan playing in the dinosaur dig area. She hates the glasses.
Elizabeth's favorite thing to do is ride the carousel on the top floor. She would probably ride it 20 times if we let her. The other thing they love to play with on that floor is the ice cream shop. They get the aprons on, stack up the ice cream and deliver it to me.
The newest exhibit at the museum is Dora the Explorer. Elizabeth loves Dora and Diego and watches them all the time. So I knew when we went to see it she would love it. They both posed for pictures with Dora and Diego for me before they ran through the exhibit. They were both so excited that they didn't really experience any of the hands on pieces- they just ran from one thing to the other, to the other. The funny this was that Elizabeth could tell you all about the episodes that each piece of the exhibit was designed around. Like I said she really loves Dora.
Our other favorite thing to do while at the museum is see the Barbie exhibit (I'm not sure what we will do when it is gone!). Normally the girls play with the clothes and the dolls, but our last visit was an exception. Had I known what I was in for I would have taken a video....
Morgan strutting her stuff on the runway.
Elizabeth came out all dolled up and ran down to the end....
She then proceeded to dance....
and strut her cute little self. She did this for about 5 minutes.
The girls love the museum. Thank you so much for our gift-we will definitely enjoy it all year long!
