I invited my dear cousin Bri to join in on the adventure with her wee one. Unfortunately terrible lighting combined with my daughter's energy led to very few usable pictures, plus I am working on enjoying the moment more than trying to document it. Here's a glimpse of the place should you have a dinosaur lover in your home.
There was lots to look at, especially if you were about 8 in taller than J. It's all good though, she gravitates to anyone around 5-7 years old because she thinks she's their age.
There was a statue to hug. He didn't hug back.
There were a few things her size.
Like this little javelina. "Dog. Dog."
I'm missing the days when she would actually sit in a stroller for more then ten minutes. I don't even bother bringing one now since J insists on pushing it unsuccessfully instead of sitting in it. I miss having something to put my purse in though.
J also found a room with her favorite thing in the world, mini chairs.
K did not like the chairs.
Totally kidding. Someone had just stolen some of his blocks and I thought the expression was priceless. I love that kid.
They also had an outdoor section where kids could pan for gold. Or splash in the water trying to figure out how those 7 year olds were doing it. No pictures since I was focused on keeping J above the water instead of under it. They also had this really cool archaeology corner (SHADED!) where they could brush off fossils. I think could make it into a successful career.
It was a really fun little museum with just enough to do for about 2 hrs and not so much that you leave feeling like you missed part of the cool stuff. It was also set up so J could walk around and touch and explore with minimum interference from me. I would totally do it again should any family come into town.
