Dinosaur Museum Pre-school Trip

Taft's preschool took a trip to the Museum of Natural History. Zea & I were able to go as well. It was a lot of fun & the boys enjoyed it a lot. It was fun to hear them growling a lot and get so excited about all the animals (espcially the dinosaurs...of course).

Here is Zea & Taft "digging" for bones with one of their good buddies, Colin. I think the coolest part about the dig was the goggles & tools they got to use. The "dig" was a bit of a flop. They just scrapped rock (that didn't move) around fossils. I thought they would actually be able to dig us something, a bit disappointing but the rest of the place was cool; we just didn't last there very long.
I think one of the favorite things was being able to stand inside the mouth of a T-rex...pretty exciting & made for some fun pictures. They also had this hall of animals that were stuffed; like a polar bear, moose, carabou...that was a favorite part also. It is nice to be able to do something fun & educational with the boys. We had a good time.
