Children's Museum

It was too hot to go swimming yesterday, so Daddy and I went and met some people downtown at the Children's Museum.

Now, I have never been to the Children's Museum before, but I thought I knew what to expect. You know - dignified displays in a hushed environment showing different kinds of children from around the world and throughout history.

Yeah, not so much.

First off, the children weren't confined to their displays. They were running all over the place. In fact, you couldn't even tell which children were on display as part of the museum and which children were there to SEE the museum. I was expecting Daddy to roll me around in the stroller while we examined all the different kinds of children on display. What I got was Thunderdome.

Don't get me wrong, it was awesome, but more Six Flags awesome than Metropolitan Museum of Art awesome. It was cool. Loud, but cool.

The best part was the Wiggle Room, which was designed for babies like me. It was this big room with really soft floors so if you biff it, it doesn't hurt. Then they have all kinds of blocks and balls and stuff you can play with. Finally, the walls are all mirrors, so you can see how cute you are or check out the kids next to you without staring right at them. It was the best. Daddy took me in there for a while, and we played like it was going outta style.

Now that I know what to expect, I can't wait to go back. Regular museums are too stuffy, anyway.
