Imagine It! Children's Museum

Lauren and I took the kids to the Children's museum in Atlanta a couple of weeks ago. We had a great time and will definitely have to do it again sometime! I love being able to take Katlyn places, especially when it's free for her age, and even more when she actually ends up enjoying it! We headed out early that morning and stayed a few hours wandering around and discovering all the fun activities they had to do! We started out in the farm where Katlyn attempted milking a cow, riding a tractor, and picking some food. Then we enjoyed the shipping process on the truck (where Miles had the most fun!) and playing with boxes, then to the grocery store where Katlyn like pulling everything OFF the shelves and did a little putting it back! She liked the little house where she and Lily sat at the table with all the food and Lily served her a "snack"! Next we headed over to the simple machines area, which was totally over our kids heads, but they liked running around with the balls and watching the other kids work the machines. Miles and Katlyn liked the little train and car area which was a really big train table with hills and roads and everything. They also had a garden with velcroed vegetables to pick and Katlyn did that for a quick minute! They got to play in the moonsand and on the stage. Katlyn danced with some big girls and loved looking in the mirrors! The three kids all painted for a minute together, which was super cute, with their little smocks on. I loved the idea because after they were finished the lady just hosed off the "artwork" and squigeed it for the next artist! I want Matt to make one for our backyard! Katlyn and I would LOVE it! The last stop was in the water area where the kids could wear little rain jackets that were bugs, firefighters, etc. and play in a huge water table with tons of toys. Katlyn liked it, but was a little too short and tumbled off the step so we decided to play in the baby area for awhile. She enjoyed crawling through the tunnels and "logs" and walking over the bridge about 30 times. She liked pushing the fish through the wall maze, too. It was a great day! Lauren and I celebrated our successful outting with the kiddos in Atlanta by having a drive in lunch at the Varsity! Fun day!

On the run to discover more!
