The Magic House

I'm so behind...I already put these pictures on Facebook a while back, so just ignore if you've already seen them! I realized, though, that I want the kids to be able to look back through this blog and see what life was like when they were kids-actually, they love to look at older posts even now and remember the fun things we did:) Plus, some of you don't do Facebook. So, here is the Magic House, which is our childrens' museum, with my favorites from two different visits crammed into one post. This isn't even half of the activities it offers, but I got tired of uploading and you would've been bored to tears:)

The Jack and the Beanstalk climbing structure spans three floors, and the kids love it.

The next few pictures are all of the Curious George room

The bubble piano, which makes bubbles as you play notes.

The static electricity ball (the boys were too sweaty on this day,

so it didn't work as well as usual)

The Lewis and Clark Expedition rooms-the boys even got to do

a hidden trail adventure (Jos was bummed b/c she was too little)

Gabe is watching his magnetic fish travel under the clear sidewalk

and end up back where Seth and Josie are catching more fish.

Living room of the Victorian House

Playing in the kitchen of the Victorian house

They loved putting these little squishy balls into the air-powered tubes

and watching where the balls shot out-you could change routes by
flipping different levers.

detective room
