Hello Children's Museum!

By now you know that the Children's Museum is one of our favorite places to visit!  Having the year pass has been GREAT!  In fact, I'm going to renew it for another year!  This visit we tried to do things we have not done before or things we have not done very often.  We started at the top with the "build an arch" activity.  The boys built it with a little help for the balancing, 
 and then came the best part... DESTROYING IT!!!
 We went outside to see what new things we could find.  We did make a stop by the animal poop display and giggled profusely.  Then we made some animal tracks in the sand...
 and took a break on the bench with Granna!
 Rylan found this "build a flower" station that we have never seen before.  Here is Jacob's flower.
 And here is Rylan's.  I love that their personality comes through in their art.  Jacob is symmetrical and straight.  Rylan's is whimsical and not symmetrical.  Even though they are twins, they are unique!!!
 This is an old favorite, but we could NOT pass it up!  The obstacle course!!! Mom and I really did not see them for about 15 minutes... all we saw were Rylan and Jacob-shaped blurs running and obstacling!



 After the obstacle course, they did the rock wall.  Rylan got all the way to 18 feet!!! He is really good at this!
 We went to Cyberchase and made circuits...
 and patterns.
 Rylan loved listening to the telephones across the room.  We had a great conversation about the Museum!!
We had not played Concentration in months, so today we did the whole board.  Jacob was especially doing good at this.
 We did it all!!!
 And the last stop was the 'Stang.  Can't go to the Museum without driving the Mustang!
Til next time...
