Minnesota Children's Museum

Last Sunday, April 19th, was Daniel's 30th birthday! Hard to believe he's the big 3-0!! To celebrate we went to the Minnesota Children's Museum down in St. Paul (only a parent would want to go there for their birthday!!). Every 3rd Sunday of the month is free for all visitors at the museum thanks to Target. So, after church we took advantage of this and went to the museum for our first time (well, I'd been there with school when I was younger). It was a super busy day -- there were kids everywhere!! The girls didn't seem to mind and they ended up having a really fun time!!

There were different rooms with different themes. There was a "town" with a grocery store, metro bus, restaurant, house, post office, hospital, etc. I think that was their favorite. There was a "water and bubbles" room, "habitot" room for the little ones, "earth world" room with MN wildlife, and a traveling exhibit that featured Clifford the Big Red Dog.

Everything in this museum was at kid level (obviously). Lillian loved this grocery cart that was just like the big one Mommy uses!

They could see themselves preforming on a TV -- like how she's playing the guitar?!
