Please Touch Museum

On Sunday May 15th the weather wasn't looking so hot, and our outside boyscout/baseball event had been cancelled, so my parents and I decided to take the boys to the Please Touch Museum. None of us had ever been and it had been on our "to-do" list for a while. It didn't hurt that we had recently discovered that 4 of us could get in for free on our Discovery Museum "friends and family" pass. So we took the drive to Philly and only paid $15 for all 5 of us to get in! What a great place. It was huge and had so much to offer! I think they loved all the sections but particularly enjoyed the water/boat area, grocery store, and art/music center. We spent a nice long day there and are looking forward to going back.

Two quick stories to share...

I was watching adoringly as Jason cared for a baby doll in the doctor/hospital section. He talked sweetly to the baby, fed it a bottle, and then proceeded to whack it in the head with stethoscope. Such a boy.

Later we were in the McDonald's section where Tyler prepared Jason a meal with fake food. We watched, curious as to whether Jason would realize the food was fake. He picked up his hamburger and proceeded to pretend to eat it, followed by shaking his head violently saying "no me yike". Apparently he did not like his fake burger.
