We are the Kincheloe's and one of our favorite things to do as a family is exploring at the Children's Museum of Indianapolis!! We moved to Indianapolis from Denver, CO September 2010 and as soon as we arrived we were on a mission to find an amazing place for our 4 year old to attend preschool. I came across an add for the program at the Children's Museum and immediately called to inquire about what sounded like an amazing opportunity. We enrolled our son Gavin and that was just the beginning of many great adventures for our family.

When I was in 6th grade I traveled with my school from Kentucky for a weekend in Indianapolis. The only major memory that I can recall from that weekend was the water clock at the Children's Museum. When we went for the first time as a family it was like I was a little kid again looking up at that amazing exibit. I was able to share an awesome childhood memory with my little explorer.

Our son Gavin gets up every morning and asks us "Can we go to the Children's Museum today!?!?" He was heartbroken when preschool ended in April. Throughout his semester there, we as a family learned so much about what excites us. My husband Bruce is an Art lover so to walk in to the Children's Museum and see amazing Chihuly glass work makes his experience unlike any other. My highlight of this past year was the Amazing Costume exhibit. My favorite movie is the Wizard of Oz and seeing the Wicked Witch of the West's hat that she wore in the movie was amazing for me. Another favorite of mine is the Ryan White story. I stood there and cried at what an awesome job the Children's Museum of Indianapolis is doing to educate our children about such real and relavant subjects to us all. Above it all Bruce and I love to see our little man Gavin, explore and embrace his love of Science and learning. Science works is an exhibit that is a favorite for Gavin and we just love to sit back and watch how he interacts. You can just see the wheels turning in his head. Another favorite for Gavin is the Dinoshere. He loves to dig for Dino bones and talk to the Paleontologist about what it was like to discover such amazing fossils.

We are so excited about the opportunity to be involved in another great day at the museum. This will give us the opportunity to make even more great family memories!!

Sincerely,
Bruce, Leah and Gavin
