Children's Museum


Last Friday we did a play date with a friend at the Children's Museum in St. Paul.

Since Drew celebrates his birthday in the month of January, he was admitted for free.  I paid the $9.50.  He also received a birthday bag that contained a duck, crown, crayons and a bag of fruit snacks.  He sure was excited for the surprise gift.

There were several rooms to visit, but we only made it to a couple.

The favorites for Drew were the piano and the facepainting.  They removed the front cover on the piano so the kids could see the movement in the action frame.  Mesmerizing

The face painting was self painting.  They had tiny mirrors set up so the kids could paint at their leisure.  Drew did several small lines in different colors.  He looked like a little jungle warrior by the time he was finished.

The website list the museum as on the of the best in the country.  I've been to the one in Chicago and  it didn't seem quite as extensive, but it was adequate.

We will go back next year around his birthday.  Once a year is enough for us.
