Boonshoft Museum of Discovery

Matt & I took the girls to the Boonshoft Museum of Discovery in Dayton today. They had a blast! It was similar to COSI, but not as big. They had a woodland zoo area that featured Ohio woodland animals. The girls really liked that part. There were also a lot of imaginary places (vet. office, courthouse, general store, recycling center, etc.) Parker had fun playing in there! Harper loved the Kid's Place. There she was able to play in the play area specifically designed for little ones. Parker enjoyed trying to dig up a dinosaur! Overall, it was a great time.

Harper playing in the Kid's Place. It was so cool. It looked like a fort built out of boxes!

Parker digging up the dinosaur. I thought it was dirt, but it was recycled rubber.
Parker & Daddy checking out the river otters.

This slide thing was cool! It was two stories. I went through it with Parker and then she did it by herself! (She is terrified of tunnels!)

Oh, no! We got locked in jail!

Dr. Penhorwood reviewing some animal x-rays.

Two cool girls driving in a cool truck.

Daddy was terrified of the mummy! (Parker asked if it was a dead mommy!)

This picture is for Uncle Luke. He would love Lego Land. (Parker asked if she could get in the glass and play with the castle!)

Parker was too chicken to touch the starfish, but not Harper. She loved sticking her hand in the tidal pool.

The coolest tree house ever! Parker was observing the birds.

If you have a rainy day with nothing to do, I recommend traveling to Dayton. It was very easy to get to. One exit past the Hara Arena exit.
