Evelyn, in words and pictures

Evelyn went to the Minnesota Children’s Museum today.  It was fantastic.  She spent about an hour and a half exploring the Habitot area, which is aimed right at kids her age.  She pushed buttons to make the timber wolf howl and great horned owl hoot, she played with the ice fishing hole, and she found duck eggs and turtles in the pond.  Then the super-fun started – Evie climbed up a rope ladder, and slid down a slide!  At first she needed a little bit of help, but after the third go-round, she really only needed Mom and Dad to spot her – she had it down.

Then it was time to play with the spider, who lived on a bunjee cord in a corner.  He was super-funny, and Evelyn climbed up to visit the top of his web.

Then Evie got to go shopping in the Explore Our World exhibit.  She pretty much cleared out the produce aisle, but fortunately she hasn’t quite worked out the checkout lanes yet, and was fine with leaving the full carts where they were.

The Children’s Museum is awesome!
