The Garden State Discovery Museum

This morning, we explored a new place to play, just across the Tacony Palmyra bridge between Philadelphia and New Jersey. The Discovery Museum had loads of fun areas for its pint sized visitors and our two, along with their cousins, Alex and Charlotte, explored them all.



Everyone loved fishing off a "real" boat at the shore and exploring the construction zone, complete with hard hats and safety vests. Ace loved playing hockey and basketball in the Get Fit area and Ben really enjoyed the Science Shop. There was even a mini diner with real menus where Me Mom and I were served a mountain of pretend food by quite a few excited pre-schoolers.



Other highlights were the Bubble Zone, where each of our tots stood in the middle of a big pit of suds and hoisted a hula hoop up over their heads with a pulley. The result was a kid inside a bubble. Ace also enjoyed exploring the News Room. He anchored, ran the camera while I gave the daily news and checked out the weather map. See our pictures from the day to check it out.
