Earlier this month the girls and I went to the Natural History Museum in Central London, which I'd heard had good exhibits for kids. I'm sure this is a run-of-the-mill outing for the average mom--of course you take your kids to museums. I and museums, however, are not the best of friends, and until now the prospect of train/bus/underground/stairs + two kids and a stroller on my own in busy Central London was too much to take on. All of that is to say I was proud we "did" the museum successfully, but I didn't manage to take many photos, so here are some shots Sophia captured:
Part of life-sized model of blue whale
Stuffed baby seal
Dinosaur skeletons (or reproductions?)
Stuffed giraffe and parts of whale skeletons in Mammal section of museum
End of a hot but good day
Sophia found she was out of memory when she wanted to video this T-Rex animatronic, so I videoed it on her behalf. You can hear her laughing at his little arms in the background...The second clip is the girls in the earthquake simulator--I will obviously have to work harder at teaching the distinction between theme-park ride and natural disaster.
