Something Old…Made New

Over the last couple of years the Fort Worth Children’s Museum has been being rebuilt.  It finally reopened just about a month ago.

Today, we decided to go and take a look at the

new facility.   I think

everyone in town was there today as well.  But, we still managed to

shoot parachutes up through this wind tube and

turn all the big wooden gears and wheels.  Then we were

off to find the dinosaurs.  Who ever knew they had

such big feet?

The fun didn’t stop there, and soon it was our turn to view the 3-D movie about energy.  But, everyone had to

wear these silly glasses.

After the movie, we

enjoyed some water activities.  Andrew had no problem shooting the water really high in the sky!

Caden found

roads to build and

ambulances to drive.

Kourtney was more interested in

walking on the balance beams and

checking out groceries in the

miniature grocery store.

We had a great day at the new Children’s Museum and will defiantly go back for another visit because in the same facility is the I-Max which was showing 3 different movies, and the Planetarium.  And, if you get your fill of this museum, you can go right next door and take in

The National Cowgirls Hall of Fame.

Again, what a great day we shared with the kids in our beautiful

downtown Fort Worth.
