We love free things to do!

Today we went to the museum here in Clarksville. When I was getting my teeth cleaned, the hygenist told me about free Sundays at the museum. Awesome.

The bottom floor is the "Explorer Room" and it's all kid oriented. A huge room of trains, the small scale and large scale trains, really really cool! Natalya loved the trains. There was also several tables of things like legos and blocks. They also have a Thomas train table and trains and she played with that for a long while until some other kids came and played and then she decided she was done.

There's also rooms that are set up like the late 19th century and early 10th century- a home, a mercantile (old-fashioned dresses and shoes), a printing press/newspaper, and old "cars", horse-drawn buggies, an old fire engine, even a horse-drawn hearse! Really neat!

They also have a room where you can make big huge bubbles and then a "grocery store". They had little kid-sized shopping carts and lots of "food" to buy, empty boxes and plastic produce. She spent at least thirty minutes shopping. She absolutely loved choosing groceries to put in her cart and then checking out at the checkout line. :)

I wonder if I can buy a kid-sized shopping cart? hmmm...must look into for Christmas. I will have to remember this as something to do with her when we need somewhere to go that is air-conditioned/heated in extreme weather. :)

We didn't make it into the real artwork part of the museum, since we got there kind of late, so that will be next time.
