Children's Discovery Museum

Thursday morning, we headed to the Children's Discovery Museum. It looked really fun from the outside!

The first area was all about water. Owen loved splashing around and finding all the boats.

Then we stopped in a miniature house.

There is a huge music area, with huge instruments. You can push the buttons on the front to hear the sounds. Lewis wanted to control about 3 of them, and got upset when other kids (or adults) tried to push them. We had to get out of there pretty quickly and some tears were shed.

Luckily, there were more instruments to try. Lewis loved the xylophones.

Owen tried out some drums.

Next, we headed to the indoor excavation site where young explorers could find dinosaur remains. The boys absolutely loved this part.



They could've played in the sand all day.

We saw a few more things, including these magnets.

Then we climbed some stairs to a lookout tower. We could see an interesting view of the city, complete with crane! It was a super fun time. We highly recommend it!!
