Children's Museum Fun

Tuesday afternoon we "raced" to meet Pa at the Children's Museum for some exploration and fun.
With the museum under renovation and the warm sunny weather outside, the Museum was practically empty, it was like our own private visit.



The Museum was full of things to see and do.

First stop, DINO sphere!

Dino Madi hatching her eggs.

Digging for fossils
(Typical Madi- she asked the Museum worker "do you ever change the fossils, I have already dug these up before)

Moulding clay models of the Dinos

Train station ticket office (the ticket said- Madison to Indianapolis, Roni thought that was neat and both girls took a ticket home as a souvenir!)

All aboard!

In Science works the girls (with the help of Pa and us Mum's) built this bridge.

What happens if you take out the keystone?

TaDa! It still stays up.

Sliding down the rock slide

Madi's turn

They are officially from Indiana now...

No trip to the museum would be complete without a ride (or two) on the carousel. We were the only ones on it!



Whoa pony!

Roni and her mum Lisa

Lilli's first carousel ride and of course she had to ride the Lion.


Another great memory!
