Having lived in Columbia my entire life (except for a year spent up north in Rock Hill, SC), most things aren't new to me. But the museum was only recently built so it's not a place I went to as a kid myself. So I enjoy exploring everything too. There's so much to do there - it would take a week going for a few hours at a time to see and do everything. Here's some pictures from our favorite places.
The Piggly Wiggly grocery store. Shop with kid size carts and then go ring each other up! Leave the restocking to mom, of course.
This ramp is in the automotive section - not sure how that all connects but the girls loved racing the tennis balls!
Fire(wo)man Katie! Dress in coat, hat, pants, boots and drive the truck! Explore under the truck and slide down the fire pole too! (Katie was afraid of the tunnel under the truck and the pole.)
Ice Hockey Rink - part of the Winter Wonderland! This is Katie's around the back move that is sure to land her a spot in the Mighty Ducks remake someday.
More Winter Wonderland - in the penguin perch. We're loving some penguins lately after some trips to the zoo to watch them eat. This one got the tickle treatment from Katie.
The Music Room - musical hopscotch and compose your own piano pieces. Play some drums - virtually anything to make lots of noise and have lots of fun!
Arts and Crafts - give this child a marker and let her run. This acrylic booth lets kids draw and color until their hearts are content. Unfortunately - there is no limit to Katie's desire to draw, so we always leave this part with a little kicking and screaming!
Loved my Mommy's Day Off with Katie exploring the museum - watching her learn and explore so many fun things!
