Children's Discovery Museum

We spent Saturday morning at the Children's Discovery Museum in uptown Normal. It's "three floors of hands-on play experiences that inspire the love of learning!" Well, if they had only two exhibits on one floor, I think Lydia would have been just as thrilled, as long those two were Water Works and Paint Wall. These had her fully engaged for a long time, and might I add, Daddy may have enjoyed playing with the hydraulics just as much, as did Mommy with the painting. The Fresh Market was also a hit as Lydia could assemble a deli sandwich and collect fruit in her basket. It'll be interesting to see what engages her most if we go back in a year or two.

I was concerned about her wanting to paint her arms or something, but it worked out.
