Children's Museum

My parents came to visit last week. While they were here, we got a chance to go to the Children's Museum downtown. I hadn't gone since Ellie was a baby, but since then they have totally redone it and my boys have grown into the older kids exhibits. The kids had a blast!
They had some phones you could talk on and see the other person. Look next to Michael, you can see Adam.
A pulley system connected to a seat...




Here we are building an arch out of stuffed blocks:
They had the best human size Lincoln logs. The older kids built a house around Nate.

The captive:

They also had a really neat climbing structure that fit neatly into a stairwell.

Water works outside, luckily, it wasn't too hot.
One of their favorite exhibits, they had a kid sized town. The kids could explore the town. Their favorite part was the HEB store where they could buy food and pay for it with money and then play cashier and check each other out.



They could also make Lego cars and race them down a track.


We definitely have to go there again.
