The Children's Museum in Edwardsville

I love coupons! It was a good thing we found some so we could find something cheap to do in this heat! We headed out on Tuesday morning to the museum here in town. We had gone last year, but the air was on the fritz and not all of the rooms were open. This time the air was cool and so were the exhibits! We played in the grocery store, the jail, the fire truck, dress up, had lots of fun in the "science room."

Jail Bird Kendall

Braden as a Firefighter

Braden as a Knight. If you are familiar with Backyardigans, you know that he was singing "We're knights that's right always polite..."


Kendall playing "music" if you want to call it that. It was mostly banging on the triangle.

Braden "fixing" the radio with real tools.

One of Braden's favorite exhibits was the "Earthquake." He and Jackson took turns building structures and then knocking them down by choosing the earthquake button on the computer. In this picture, Jackson is jumping for joy because the building fell. Let's not have them build any homes for us!
