On Monday we went into Manhattan and visited the American Museum of Natural History, while there I purchased a family membership. Today we headed back to Manhattan, our first stop was Alice's Tea Cup.
Louis and Leah enjoyed some tea.
We ordered quite a bit of food for our breakfast tea.
All of it was delicious and very little was left over (1 scone).
After breakfast we went over to Central Park to play.
We put the family membership into use and visited two of the exhibits we skipped on Monday. This 'Beyond Planet Earth: The Future of Space Exploration exhibit was perfect for the kids. Louis has been learning all about the solar system the past month and was excited to check everything out. He rode on my back for some of the exhibit. He was tired and it was very busy.
When we came to the section on Mars he was ready to get down. His current favorite planet is Mars. This interactive space exploration computer program was incredible.
They had a model of what working on Mars would be like. Louis loved the idea of being on Mars.
We went up to the fourth floor and checked out the dinosaurs. It was not as busy as it was on Monday which made it the perfect time to visit.
We grabbed some hot dogs after the museum and ate them in Central Park.
Louis wanted to climb the rocks by the Ladies' Pavilion. Off they went.
We stopped at one of the many playgrounds. I fed Gabriel while Louis and Leah played in the sandbox.
Alice in Wonderland statue...we had a mishap right after this photo was taken with both Leah and Louis missing their footing and falling. Fortunately they were both okay, so a little shaken up.
Traveling on my own with three kids may sound like a difficult thing to do but the three of them travel so well. They know safety comes first and rarely is there a problem. Louis loves taking the trains and heading into Manhattan has become one of his favorite things to do, especially the dinosaurs at the museum.
