Scene IV - Virginia Discovery Museum

Kallie had been looking forward to visiting the Children's Museum in Charlottesville. We picked a potentially bad-weather day for the visit.

There was so much to do, we could have easily gone back another day.


Kallie looked at a very colorfully painted live sand crab....



...And found some great tap shoes in the costume corner.



Kyle banged on the large pipe instrument, which was right next to the 10 foot tall guitar.



Kyle loved watching the ball elevator dump the balls into the network of pipes and tunnels.



Kallie and Kyle let Mommy help them at the grocery counter checkout.



Mommy had her picture taken with the nifty internal organ model.



Kallie spent a lot of time checking out the bee hive, which had a tunnel piped to the window so that the bees could fly outside, but not come into the museum.



After we left the museum, Kallie and Kyle both took a ride on the man-powered carousel - something that I've looked forward to bringing her to for months. She really liked it.

Check out CMoR - Children's Museum of Richmond next time they're in town, especially when they're a but bigger! Then later, there's always Amazement Square in Lynchburg - fun times!!
