Our Trip to the Dallas Children's Museum

This summer we have taken several trips to the Dallas Children's Museum. It was so much fun.
Everything is hands on learning for the kids and they just loved it.

Here they are looking at a snake in the backyard area.


There is a large water table that flows like a river. It has ducks and water wheels that the kids can play with.



There is a large area designated to farming. Here the kids are gathering eggs. They can also "pick" vegetables and milk a cow, ( that was so cool it actually felt like you were milking a cow.

Here they are pretending to be firefighters. There are little hats a firemen coats just their size to wear and then they can climb into the firetruck.

After the children's museum we went to the Museum of Natrual History to see the dinosaurs and other animals. The first time we went Shane wasn't with us so the next time we took him and the kids ran from scene to scene showing him the different animals.

Here they are sitting on Jumbo the Mammoths trunk.

Here they are showind Daddy a triceretops skull in the Dino dig area.

And I remember this from when I was a kid. Its a distant relative to the armadillo.
