Dinosaurs

After the bikers left we headed to the museum. They were running a deal this month called $2 Tuesdays. My friend and I tried coming for that, but when we arrived the lines were insanely long and the parking lot was full. We both have babies so we decided it was not worth it and took the kids to the park instead. I am so glad we waited.

It was not very busy (because the whole world was there on Tuesday) We were able to spend time at all of the exhibits and the hands on stations were really fun because it was not very crowded. They would have been impossible to enjoy with a thousand kids there.


I was very impressed with how big the museum is. There were lots of dinosaurs and they went through each time period ending with a display of all of the threatened and endangered species that we have right now.

There were three places for the kids to stop and play. The first room had toy dinosaurs, puppets and costumes for the kids to play with.

The second was a big sand and water place where they wanted the kids to use the water and sand to cause mud slides to bury the dinosaurs.

That is how they think a lot of the dinosaurs who's full fossils they find died. The last hands on exhibit was an excavation room where they get to dig for bones.

Joe loved the T-rex's and Josh liked this big shark head. He didn't dare turn his back on it though.

I don't blame him.
