Children's Museum

We headed to the Children Museum on 83rd St. Brandon LOVED it, although you wouldn't know that from the first picture we took. When we first got to the Dora floor, we put him on the floor next to Dora and Diego and he seemed excited. But when we actually looked at his face, he was crying and looked scared. But, by the time we got to the next room, all was well. It was great because there were areas dedicated to babies Brandon's age. The Dora floor ended up being a fun floor with fun things to touch and explore. The 4th floor had a crawling space that had him moving for over an hour with fun discovery stations that he had to do something to make something work. For example, if you place your hand on the silver hand, the air would start blowing and make styrofoam float up. We had a wonderful time watching him discover all that he can do. There is also an outside water play area.

On the way to the museum, we stopped at Jacques Torres to pick up one of their famous chocolate chip cookies. Good stuff, though still doesn't beat our favorite Levain ones. Brandon loved the chandelier in the chocolate store and the employees were so nice to Brandon!

The Discovery Floor!

Independent was the word of the day!

Figuring out how things work...

The long tunnel was pretty dark - he didn't like it about half way thru - but he made it.

Outside in the water area. They had some crazy wind vanes that Brandon loved...esp the lady bug one. (like his 10 little ladybugs book)
