After purchasing a Groupon months ago, we finally made it to the Magic House down in Kirkwood. We spent 5 hours exploring the house when my mom came to visit last week.
Tyler had so much fun and it really getting into playing pretend and wanting to know how things work. Everything is hand on – except the traveling Lego exhibit – more on that later – so it really keeps busy boys happy.
Of course we had to spend some time in the art studio. There were two easels set up and when we first got there no one was there – Ty painted all four sheets of paper that were set up. What can I say – the boy loves to paint! Unfortunately we forgot to go back and pick up his master pieces before we left.
Walking around they house they have all kinds of fun areas. There’s a water table, sand table, pretend library, store, doctor’s office, restaurant, vet’s office and many more I can’t remember. One of his favorites was a construction site. We walked in and I told him to pick a helmet to wear, the one missing is what he chose. Should’ve known – operating ENGINEER.
Found a tool belt just like daddy’s! I had to snug it up as tight as I could so it would stay on his little hips.
In this election season – I just couldn’t resist a photo of Ty in the oval office deciding between fruit snacks or banana for a snack. He overruled the banana decision with a presidential veto and tacked on a candy amendment to the snack bill.
This was part of the traveling Lego exhibit I mentioned earlier. It was really cool – no touching though so we didn’t stay in this room long. I wonder if they are actually glued together somehow??
Can you believe that is made out of Legos? Before we left the room I asked Ty to pick out his favorite, he thought this was really cool. Good choice buddy!
See him pointing, reaching…almost touching…before the lady said this was a no touch exhibit. Here Gram is making sure the Lego lover didn’t make the crayons come tumbling down.
We had a great visit with my mom last week! I wish someone could come visit every time Jeremy has to be gone for a week. It makes the time go by much faster. Thanks for coming mom! Maybe you can get dad to come next time.
