A morning at the museum

We had the KMA on our bucket list for a while now, and with prechool just around the corner, I thought we'd take advantage of one of the last unscheduled mornings. 

See if you can spot the theme:






Still  (me)

vs.

track runner (Madness)

Lots of fun!  Oh, how my child stretches me.  A couple of times I thought we were going to be put on the museum bad list as little hands reached to "touch" the art.  Madeline did learn the difference between a "picture" museum (Look, but don't touch!- as she explained to Daddy) and a children's museum. But, everyone was kind and engaging.  One of the museum workers encouraged Madeline to play a museum version of "I Spy"- thoughtful woman. 

We did take a little detour to the chocolate factory for some treats; I couldn't deny the girl a chocolate lollipop for 89 cents.... and a truffle for me!  Next time, we'll pack Fort Kid in alongside a picnic lunch.

Love that you took her to the KMA! My mom is doing tours there these days. that woman must volunteer somewhere at all times and needs a break from the church.

Maybe you should start a girls on the run for pre-schoolers. ;)
