Seattle Childrens Museum

Jeff & I took Madeleine to the Seattle Children's Museum on Monday! Madeleine loved it and Jeff and I did too...there is so much to do there that I felt a bit overwhelmed at times though. We made it through all the exhibits and Madeleine was sure tired when she got home. I've never seen her fall asleep so fast! You can always tell your child had fun when they come home with paint on their clothes, in their hair, and on their ears - she went crazy!

Here are Jeff & Madeleine outside the museum at the Seattle Center

Our first activity was ice painting! Each child got an ice-cube on a stick and a cup of powdered cool aid. As the ice melts with the powder, it turn to liquid to paint with. Madeleine would rather eat it than paint with it :-)

Madeleine loves playing with water and she left the museum soaking wet!

The grocery store was probably Madeleine's favorite exhibit! She loved grabbing the food items and putting them in her cart...she went around and around the store. She didn't want to leave.

Madeleine seems to be a healthy shopper too. She had a mix of fresh vegetables and fruits, along with some canned goods, a loaf of bread and of course some ice-cream!

Oh, I can't forget the bus. This was another favorite! She loves busses, she is constantly calling them out when we are driving so when she saw that she had the opportunity to drive a bus, she got so excited!
