Discovery Museum

On Fridays we have been going to some museums around here and the kids have been loving it (though they have gotten sick so I think I might be done with them for a little while). The first one we went to is always fun! It's perfect for the kids ages right now. The first building we went to had a big boat where they could play driving, working, and fishing, see fish and play with trains.

Mckinley liked the underwater part and I had to kneel with her multiple times to get through it because I think she was scared to go in on her own, but she didn't show it, just didn't move if I wasn't there.
Harrison and Ollie are driving the boat.
playing with trains...it was really fun to see them play side by side together on the train set

Another building you learned all about water. One of then you built a boat and turned on the air so see how fast they would sail...Harrison and Mckinley both loved playing in the water and of course it got Harrison jumping (and both wet). These are Harrison two boats he built.

Working hard out in the "construction zone"

Playing at the ship wreck
And yet another boat outside. It is right off the bay so I think boats are a big part...and it seemed like we went to all of those buildings too.
You really get the best view of Golden Gate Bridge from the parking lot...it is beautiful!
