A Day at the Children's Museum

Indoor activities are a favorite here in Utah in the dead of winter. The downtown Gateway shopping center has a great children's museum with convenient underground parking below the building. The kids had a great time. There are so many activities that Dylan was in "stimulus overload" and had to try everything! Austin loved the baby area and enjoyed playing with other babies for the first time! He is so used to fending off a big brother that it was a nice change for him!




These tubes were pretty cool! There is a burst of air when the door is opened and then stops once the ball is placed and the door closes. It was so fun watching Dylan cringe when the air hits him in the face!







Austin climbed up both sides of this slide, the smooth part and this side with the wooden slats. He was so proud of himself when he got to the top!







Both kids loved the water play area. Austin was so upset when Mike finally had to stop holding him up so he could play. Our knees aren't meant to stay in that position too long!




There are several outfits or uniforms for the kids to wear. Dylan loves the fireman coat and hat. Although this was a jeep, he pretended it was a firetruck.


The little store is so cute. Here is Dylan picking up a few items.

That looks like so much fun! I can't wait to take Rebecca to places like that! Right now she's still thrilled with the little things like eating cheese for the first time!
