Museum

We also went to the Pittsburgh Children's Museum and Zoe had a blast. There were lots of fun things to do and of course the day that we went was a special day for kids going into kindergarten, so there were more people there than usual, I think. After lunch though there were lots fewer people which made the art space lots better. Here are a few pictures from the day.

There was a video wall that we could stand in front of that had letters falling from the top and we could catch them. Max was able to catch some on his stroller as well. I was able to catch several letters on my arms and head. I guess it actually does say something but it is changing so much that it is nearly impossible to read.

There were several of these large disks around to spin. They had different mediums in them and would mimic waves, or avalanches.

Zoe got to play in the water, which she loves to do. There was a great big pool with lots of different toys and also ones to make. They provided the rain coats and there was a big wall of hand dryers to dry off some of the clothes.

While Zoe was playing in the water Max played in the little kids area. He sat around and played with a few toys, but it gave him a place to play as well so he wasn't in his stroller all day. And then Zoe joined him and they played with the enormous lite brite.Then Zoe got to go create, and that is one thing that she loves to do. She got to paint...

Make some wire art (out of really big twist-ties)...

And she made some paper.

And one item that we went back to several times was...

this really huge person that we could push and pull levers and move arms, hands, fingers, and torso. It was one of the times that we saw Zoe really stand her ground.
