We took a day trip to Indianapolis with our great friends, the Rasmussens, for a day of fun at the Children's Museum. It is the best Children's Museum we've ever been too and we had a great time.
We drove down in the morning (it's about a three hour drive) and stayed until closing at 5:00. Near the beginning of our day, we were in the main lobby and the local news channel was there for a story about things to do for spring break and interviewed Jon. He is quoted as saying about the museum "It fits in our budget and time constraints."
They have a great Curious George exhibit, Dinosaur Dig Site, Carousel ride, a big slide that everyone can ride on, a robots exhibit, a play area for smaller kids - complete with water and sand right next to each other, a real Mummy, blown glass with plastic replicas for the kids to play with, a science works area and even a parade to lead everyone out of the building, promptly at 5:00. The kids were all SO good - you'd never guess that between the two families there were 8 kids, some of whom had naps interrupted.
It was a fun day and we were happy to have a day to spend as a family and with great company!
1 - Kate trying to figure out a rotary phone, 2 - Kate giving Curious George a hug, 3- Jack going down the slide with his sunglasses on - he wore those a lot of the day, 4 - Lindsey digging for dinosaur bones, 5 - Emily at glass works with a completed project and 6 - Kate in a race car with Hailey and Brynlee.
