Museum Fun . . . or not.


Orion and I went to a Discovery Museum in Milwaukee today with Wanda. It wasn't quite like I pictured it being, but we still had a pretty good time. In my mind, I pictured a childrens museum with some exhibits geared towards toddlers. Unfortunately, there were none there like that. Orion had fun playing with some of the gadgets and wheels and buttons, but I don't think he really paid much attention to what most of them did. The best part was the Aquarium. Orion LOVED looking at all the different fish!! And of course, the water. He wanted so badly to go and play in it, but was very good and only stuck his hand in it once. There was a part where we could walk over some of the tanks, and look down and see the fish we were walking on. Orion did NOT like that! He was scared and holding on to the railing for dear life. I finally took pity on him and carried him across the rest of the clear floors. All in all, I am glad we went. I now know I don't care to go back there, and since we got in for free, I didn't waste $30 on a place that as of right now, Orion didn't really understand. Maybe in 5 or 6 years we will go back.

An aquarium sounds like a lot of fun! I'm glad Orion got to enjoy that part, or most of that part. You both look so cute!

Do you go to the Madison's Children Museum? We LOVE that one.
