Science, Naturally

Today my little guy and I decided we didn't want to waste such a nice day. We went downtown to the Science Center. They have a great outdoor play area for the kids where they can try out different science things and learn from them.

While we were walking around, we found something we didn't know was there. DINOSAURS! There were two dinosaurs outside that the kids can see and get their pictures with. My little guy was so excited to say the least. He kept asking, "Mommy, can they get me?" I would say, "No, honey, they are not real. See go touch him." He was thrilled. He wanted me to take pictures of him sitting on the feet and tail. He could even stand under the belly of the triceratops!

When we walked back to the car, he said, "Mommy, that was lots of fun!" Then off we drove to McDonald's for a quick lunch before nap time. What a day! I am so excited for spring to finally be here and so is he!

Another thing I wanted to mention is that the St. Louis Science Center has lots of free parking. Just go to the building pictured here and park outside of it either in the lot or on the street. Your entire trip to this cool, kid friendly place can be absolutely FREE!
