New Robot exhibit at the Childrens Museum



Today we went to the Children's Museum to check out the new Robot exhibit that opened last weekend. Ian has been talking about robots a lot since watching the Robot Movie a few weeks ago. I thought the kids were going to love this exhibit but it really wasn't a hit with them. They liked the big robots (like the ones pictured) but that was about it. I think this exhibit was geared toward an older crowd. I thought it was cool. :-) The dinosaur exhibit was once again there favorite exhibit of the day. You can see them digging for fossils in the pictures below. Ian really got into digging today. Usually he doesn't like the goggles but he didn't mind today. He loved using the magnifying glass. It's nice having a membership because we can just spend a couple hours and not feel bad about not being able to see everything. We usually go early, right when they open, hit 3 or 4 exhibits and the carousel then eat lunch on the way home. I usually pack peanut butter sandwiches and we're home by 12:30 pm....Ian's nap time. It works out great and is a fun and educational morning for all of us.
