Well, I didn't want to leave James out! He was there for the museum too, of course!
In fact we went with my sister and her family. The kids pretended they were archeologists digging for undiscovered treasures. They have a neat set up in the museum. They provide the brushes, magnifying glasses, rulers, pencils, clipboards, and field guides for the children to identify and record what they find in the gravel boxes throughout the exhibit area.
There is a new "games" exhibit at the museum now. There are many great games displayed and they are all available to play. Each area explains the history of the game, as well as the directions and they provide all they necessary supplies. Here's our favorite. It is called Plum Stones. If I have the time, I would love to make a homemade version for us to play at home. It was a favorite of the kids.
Well, that...and the Wii. Can you imagine...a Wii in the history museum? Crazy...does this mean I am an old fogey???
Everyone's absolute favorite was the bubble exhibit.
Even Uncle Brian participated! HEHE
