Vicki face-to-face with a stuffed black bear. There was a room of stuffed animals - many of which I remembered from when I was a kid.

Vicki playing a music machine. Rotating the handle forced pins to hit against xylophone-type plates and make music. The same room had a bunch of punchcards that could be fed into machines using a handle and would play songs like "Happy Birthday".
There were a bunch of phones to listen to and hear information about various things about sound and technology. George liked listening to many of them.
The museum was a really fun trip. I definitely think we'll be going back again soon since we didn't really have a lot of time to play as much as the kids would've liked.

Hello,
ReplyDeleteThe museum is Morris Museum located in Morristown NJ. It's a fun place and very easy for keeping track of little ones since it's never crowded. I did post on the Sky board as well since others may be interested and included a link to the Museum's webpage.
Hi there,
ReplyDeleteI also landed from the same group Monica mentioned :) I recognized the museum, it is one of our favorites. It is FREE on Thursdays between 5-8pm, which is when we go. Let us know when you go next and we can meet up! I have a 6yo and 2yo girls.
Cheers,
Alina
That sounds great! I can't seem to figure out how to send a private message from here but my email is on the member list for our group if you want to send a message and we can make plans privately. I think I found you on the list but I wasn't positive if there might be another Alina. I'm the only dottie on there.
