Day at the Museum

The first Saturday of every month, the Denver Art Museum has free entry for CO residents. We didn't have anything else planned, so Sam and I took the light rail downtown, met Brian (he was working in the morning) and headed over there.

Sam's New Hat and Mitten Set.

The China portion of the Denver Art Museum was definitely our favorite. Sam had fun building Build the Great Wall of China with large-scale fabric blocks and coloring a dragon hand puppet with Daddy.

Unfortunately, two little girls were hogging all of the other blocks, so Sam only had 6-7 to play with, but he didn't seem to mind.

There was also a section of the museum where you could make a Chinese dragon mask to take home and wear. Unfortunately, Daddy was more interested in that, while Sam climbed on a turtle in the same area and wanted me to climb on it, too.

The only bad thing about The Denver Art Museum is that it doesn't open until 10am on Saturdays. With Sam's lunchtime around 11:30 (and a nap afterwards), that doesn't leave much time to play before he gets hungry and cranky.

Sam should stop taking naps when he hits 3, so when we go after that, we can always come back after lunch and play some more.
