The Ft Worth Children's Museum

On Thursday August 12th, Sofia and I went to the Ft. Worth Children's Museum with my friend Jen and her son 21/2 year old Jonah, and 1-year old, Eden. It was a first visit for all of us and I can't believe we haven't made it there before - it was fantastic! Each area had something fun for kids and the layout was perfect for having a museum full of kids and parents, yet not feeling crowded. It was another blistering hot day, so it felt great to be inside in the air conditioning while the kids ran around and played. feel of not being very crowded. We first visited the Innovation Studios, where Sofia built a flying object out of a paper plate and tested it out in the wind tunnel. Then we went into the Dinolab and learned about dinosaurs, and finally we made it into the Children's Museum where a small children's play nursery was set up as well as a fabulous train section. Sofia made a beeline for the trains, and never looked back!

Trains! Sofia was in heaven! She loved crawling under the table and getting into the openings to continue playing


Showing Eden Green Beup Beup. Eden was in love with Green and she reminded me of when Sofia first fell in love with her buddy. Sofia was surprisingly acceptable of Eden's attention to Green Beup Beup.


Cooling off! I couldn't resist Sofia's pleas to run into the fountain and she had a very fun time - I just wish I could have joined her. It was SO hot outside. After we reached the car, she fell fast asleep and slept for over an hour.
