Spring Break at the Children's Museum

This week Sophia was on her very own Spring Break as our daycare provider Corey took the week off to visit some warmer weather and go on her very first cruise.

Sophia spent several days back and forth with mommy and daddy. She was so eager to hang out with us, that the countdown leading up to the week involved her asking every day, "Is today the special day I get to stay home?"

One of the many days she was at home we decided to head to the Children's Museum. Thanks to her papa and nana we used our museum pass which will allow us to visit as many times as we want over the course of the next year. I know that this will come in handy this summer!

When we got there we visited the first exhibit that dealt with Art. Sophia thought that the large chicken you could ride on was pretty cool.


After finishing in the Art room, we headed over to her most favorite spot as she calls it, "The Water Room". She played in all of the different water items and created some humongous bubbles.

Once she had worn out all of the possibilities of playing in the water, we ventured over to her next favorite spot which is the kitchen and the grocery store.

We spent quite a bit of our day here, pretending to grocery shop and make things in the restaurant. She looks like such a natural in the kitchen.


Then we headed up to the fourth floor to check out the new Lego Castle exhibit. It was incredible. Several Lego things to play with. Sophia enjoyed sitting on the castle throne inside of the gigantic castle.


To end the day we made a stop at the face painting station. Sophia has never wanted to get her face painted, but had begged to paint mine so I let her. I was hoping it would show her that it was fun and it didn't hurt. Sure enough my trick worked.


It was such a fun day spent together. I am counting down the days until my break so we can go back again!

Looks like tons of fun. Hopefully we can take the girls together soon. I know Abby would love it!
