Holidays Through the Eyes of Children

[[{"type":"media","view_mode":"media_large","fid":"39988","attributes":{"class":"media-image","typeof":"foaf:Image","style":"","width":"250","height":"333","title":"Children","alt":"Children"}}]]Our family became members of The Children's Museum of Indianapolis this year and have spent several afternoons with our 2 girls, 18 months and 3, taking in the sights. Their favorite areas are the dinosaurs, dragons and the animals of the Carousel. So much so that our 3 year old was a dinosaur and our 18 month old was a purple dragon for Halloween! It is wonderful to watch their expressions each time we visit the museum. A wonderful bonus is that we can take an afternoon away from our busy lives to interact on their level. We play at the water table, do puzzles on the large magnetic wall, get lost in the mirror maze and say hi to each of the exhibit animals. We have never been to the museum during the holidays and are very excited to make it a new tradition. Finances are really tight right now and we are placing a lot of focus on the "non-material" areas of the holidays. Time together as a family is priceless and the museum is a great place to experience new things. I can't think of a better view than to watch our girls experience new things and witness the excitement in their eyes.
