Discoveries...

For Christmas this year we got the babes a membership to the children's museum. They love it! Today we went for the second time (my first time alone w/ them--a little crazy but doable;) and I just love to see them explore. I guess the gardens were our spring/summer/fall hang out and the museum will be our Winter. The aren't the best pics, but it was hard to find time to follow Amelia (who acts like she owns the place:) and carry Sam (he gets a bit overwhelmed) and take pictures!

The water activity is the favorite by far. There is this little one for toddlers and a bigger one for the big kids. I love how they have created activities that span so many ages!


Sam loved this "TUCK!"


and Amelia loved this one:)


Even amidst all of the hulabaloo Sammy found a quiet spot to read...


while Amelia went up and down this slide again and again and again.

Anyway, it's great fun and there is lots more to show you. I'm sure there will be many more pictures to come as winter swirls along. Here's to the gift of discovery:) Jen

This looks marvelous! I can't believe Sammy looks so much older even than when we were there a week ago! I never get tired of looking at them and their insatiable appetite for adventure! Can hardly wait to go there with them...soo glad you made this their Christmas gift! Great idea! gma
