The Field Museum

The Field Museum of national history had a free day last week so we decided it was time to check it out. We had a good time even though we only got through about a 1/3 of it. 2 1/2 year olds are not particularly museum friendly! I hope to go back so we can explore the rest of it. The kids enjoyed the extensive animal collection and of course seeing SUE the dinosaur.

Mya in the percussion section of the kids corner- she wouldn't leave this drum alone!

We made a mask in the arts and craft section for kids

I'm surprised the museum wasn't very crowded for the free admission day- cool! I might have to try it next time.
