South Shore Children's Museum

Due to a Portland, Maine trip and a visit from Uncle James, we ended up at two New England Children's museums on consecutive Saturdays.

Before Sophia joined our family, I assumed we wouldn't go to children's museums until she was a few years older. I have been really pleased by how these places have captured her interest as well as my own. It seems like a great mix of physical activity, education, and play. So, we are now happy members of the "South Shore Children's Museum". In addition to a creative focus on New England (a ball pit designed to look like a cranberry bog), there are arts classes, story times, and even yoga.

Below are some highlights of Sophia enjoying a first visit to the museum with her Dada and Uncle James:

At the museum, Sophia's Uncle James also helped her create her first pasta necklace and an impromptu sculpture:






The museum is about halfway between our home and Sophia's Godparents, so we went there afterwards for lunch:
