MN Childrens Museum ~ Oct 4

Abby & I spent a fantastic morning exploring the MN Children's Museum this weekend.
We both had a BLAST!


In the Habitot Gallery Abby pretended to be a frog on a lily pad.


And she peered down an ice hole at a big fishie.
She also pretended to be a turtle.


In the Our World exhibit, Abby took a turn driving the Metro Transit bus. She shopped for produce in the market.
And then took a turn at being the Checkout Girl...

...kind of like her mom back in the days of Leuken's Village Foods!


I questioned her on how one bottle of tide would ring up as $600 dollars...

and she got a little flustered.

Abby created a visual masterpiece in the Creativity Room.

It is now prominantly displayed on our dishwasher at home.


We also made a hat with boingy antennaes out of recycled paper.

In the World Works exhibit, Abby and a few other industrious children manned their posts in a make-believe warehouse. They worked as a team to move boxes through a long two-story conveyor belt.
There was also an entire room full of water activities...Abby was soaked up to the elbows,
but had so much fun...who cares?
