Discovery Museum
“Mommy, I will wear this dress and those shoes…and have jewels on the sides of my beautiful necklace and silver butterflies.”
— Lucy, looking at the window of a wedding dress shop while we walked over to the bookstore

Here’s a video of a recent trip to the Children’s Discovery Museum. From the CDM web site:
The striking 52,000 square foot purple building, designed by Mexico City-based architect Ricardo Legorreta, signals the purpose of Children’s Discovery Museum to serve the needs of children, families and schools as a center for learning and discovery.
Encompassing the broad themes of community, connections and creativity, exhibits invite self-directed, open-ended explorations, while programs provide facilitated, focused, and sustained interactions.
The Museum is in Guadalupe River Park, where the largest Monopoly board in the world is located.

Funny how the description quoted doesn’t mention the giant rubber ducky on the roof. Oh, and the monopoly board…I knew we forgot something! next time.

Thank goodness for that “little kids” area. I think that and the various bubble machines were her favorites.
