Since the kids were such troopers during the art museum visits, we decided to visit a museum geared toward their interests- that being the American Museum of Natural History. This is the museum featured in the movie "Night at the Museum". Thankfully, none of the exhibits came to life while we were there. This place was truly a kids paradise. There were halls and halls filled with all types of stuffed animals. In the ocean life room there was a huge model of a blue whale hanging from the ceiling. That was really cool. There were also interesting exhibits about gems and minerals (Olivia's favorite), Native Americans, and loads of dinosaur bones. The kids were in no hurry to leave this museum. Included with the admission were tickets to see the show at the planetarium that's attached to the building. We have never taken the kids to see this type of thing before, so we weren't sure what to expect. The show was educational and really well done. It certainly caught Olivia's attention. She leaned over toward the end of the show and said to me, "Mama, I'm not going to take a picture because I know we're not suppose to, but I really want to because this is cool". Owen fell asleep during the show. Bless his heart.
