Grand Rapids Children's Museum February 18th

 Mason's kindergarten class traveled to the GR Children's Museum in
February. Grandma and Grandpa took Madelyn, too. Here Mason lifts
a big ring out of a soap solution that produces a big bubble around the kids.
 There were smaller open tanks of bubble solution and big rings. Mason
got pretty good at it!
 A small climbing wall.
 Mason would find the Legos, of course.
 The big beam in the center was magnetized. Mason built all sorts
of creations as all the steel stuck together.
 Arranging different types of media on a light table.
 The teeth were for brushing, but Mason clowns with them.
 Madelyn drops balls down a slope and rigs the different
bells. The golf balls worked best.
 They had many different vehicles for the kids to
drive.
 Madelyn brushes the teeth on a dentist's office patient.
 A jungle hat and drums.
 Playing a set of large bolts. They also had wrenches.
 Baby girl's turn at the bubble table.
 Crawling through a triangular prism makes for a
kaleidoscope-type image for Madelyn.
 Creative station with glue, scissors, cards, fabric,
styrofoam, etc.
 A real bee hive and magnifying glass to see the bees
up close.
 
Riding a big horse and packing around four big black
stuffed dogs.
 Julie brought silicon muffin cups that looked fun
to play with.
Piggy tails!

Early February Baby Girl Antics

 Waking up with one of Aunt Colleen's pigs she had
when she was young.
 Lunch with the pig.
 Another dress-up day. Sheriff Caley hat with
fairy princess skirt and the pig.
 Poor Paris wore a tutu with the princess.
You need pink safety glasses and pigtails to work
with grandpa's Leatherman.
 
 Madelyn's going to fix something!
