Childrens Museum

Julie's sister Jenn and nephew Zachary came up for a visit last weekend, so we took them to the Children's Museum. It has recently become one of our favorite places to hang out. Julie and I decided to get a membership a couple of months ago - it is some of the best money we ever spent. It pays for itself within just a couple of visits, you can visit during members-only hours to beat the crowds, and the kids just love the exhibits. We highly recommend it for anyone with young children.

Jocelyn loves the climbing ramps near the museum entrance. They alone are worth the price of admission. Even if it means that I need to play sherpa because she is a bit small to be in there by herself!

Zachary was able to get a bit further on the ramps - all the way to the top I think, with Pepere hot on his tail to make sure all was well...

It's a little difficult to make a graceful exit, as we both learned!

Ian isn't yet able to full take advantage of the interactivity of a lot of the exhibits, but is fascinated by the bubble chamber. I think he would hang out there for hours if we let him.

He did, however, take full advantage of the opportunity to hang out with Grammy and Auntie Jenn and I think loved all the extra attention.

Overall it was a great way to let the kids have fun while we all caught up. Good times had by all.
