The children's Musuem!

Our lastest outing have deen to the Children's Museum! We love the Children's Museum so much that we got a membership there this year instead of the zoo! Plus it cost less! Wesson loves it! There are 2 floors and the top floor changes every so often with different themes. Last month was Construction and then Clifford the Big Red Dog is coming at the end of May.

 

Here is Wesson enjoying the gravel pit which is part of the Construction Theme up stairs.
 

They had little wheel borrows with fake rock that they could load and unload into bucket and then pull a pulley and bring them up to a platform where they could unload them down a slide back into the wheel borrows.

Wesson couldn't get close enough to the BIG tractors!!!

 

In the Construction Area they had blocks of all shapes and sizes. From small blocks to huge Lincoln Logs you could build a play house out of! 

 

Here is a huge light piano that Wesson had a fun time banging on.

 

The favorite room is the Ball Room. This room is full of pipes and balls. The kids run around collecting balls and putting them in all kinds of opening. The ball all collect in a big container in the middle of the room. Then every so often a siren will go off and all the kids run to the center of the room where the container opens up and dumps all the balls on the kids head!
 

Here is Wesson waiting for the balls to drop!

They also have places where you can pump, stomp, and pound things for balls to do different things.

Here a group shot from when we went for work. You can see all the different pipes in the back ground! Very cool!
