Day three was absolutely gorgeous! In the morning we went to The New Children’s Museum. It was not exactly what I thought it was going to be, but it was very cool and I highly recommend it. All of the exhibits are actually commissioned pieces of art work, but they are also to be used by kids. Art that is cool and kid friendly…you can’t beat that.


A rock climbing wall that is also art. The design was made out of duct tape.

They played with this a couple of times. It was a computer program…they drew with their crayon/finger and then had to figure out how to get the ball to reach the star without letting the ball fall. It’s hard to explain, but the boys had great fun with it. Lots of problem solving was going on.

This was a huge whale that was outside. I can’t tell you how messy they got painting that darn thing. They enjoyed themselves though. (They were wearing aprons, by the way, but you wouldn’t know it by looking at their clothes.)

They rode these chariots several times. There was a track they rode them around on. It was kind of tricky getting the hang of them…Colm didn’t care though…he just went backwards until he finally figured out how to get it to go forwards. 🙂
We spent the evening at Legoland which is where we also rang in the new year with a concert and lots of fireworks.
