Indy's Children's Museum: Take 2


This time a wonderful friend from the ward invited us to go with her as the +2 on her annual pass and our other intern friends, the Pace's- this time it was much less crowded, this timewe each had friends to play with/talk to and Lily got to ride the carousel TWICE. It was a wonderfully spent 5 hours. 

The fun starts in the front lobby with the Transformers.

"Bumblebee" - a real prop used in the movie. Not that my girls have any idea what a transformer is, but they thoroughly enjoyed the "big robot".



Dinosaur excavation. Did I mention before that they have real paleontologists working here - brushing up real dinosaur fossils. Kids can go up and watch and ask as many questions as they want. AWESOME. Lily still thinks all dinosaurs are dragons - even after watching Dinosaur Train all summer. 

Digging up some bones.


RARR!

New hot wheels exhibit. I think motorcycles are great, but no one in my family will own one. I love like my sleep to much to be up all night worrying about them crashing and dying. Rational or not, that's the way it's going to be.
