For the Kids

Recently, we went on a trip to the Children's Museum (it was open this time, hurray!). The first thing Dash did was plop down on the floor and look at the map. Attaboy, orient yourself and then explore!

As we explored, Liam was very anxious for his daddy to make a pulley system, which he expertly produced.

Dash got to drive a police car.

Aaaaand so did Liam!

Then the boys logged their opinions about various life issues. They disliked everything. Perhaps only because  the "like" slot was a foot taller than them. I wouldn't like that either.

They got to peddle some big kid bikes. And by peddle, I mean scrape the footholds with their tiptoes.

We found a place full of little experimental zones that, while Sean thought it was cool, was a little beyond our toddler's capacity. Though Dash did like adjusting this light circle.

So up to the toddler zone we went! Lots of wonderful toys within easy reach. Better.

Liam figured out that if he just held on to his toys forever, his mom wouldn't pester him to share when another kid started to show interest. Clever.

Which is more fun to do with the car ramp: line up the vehicles or climb aboard yourself? Depends on which boy you ask.

And suddenly our day visit is done and we return home for lunch and naps. What a splendid place.
