The first Monday of every month at the Utah Museum of Natural History is FREE! We went today and the kids loved it.
"Todally Frogs" exhibit.
Photo op...no idea what this had to do with the frogs other than the fact there is a frog in the picture, but whatever always looking for a good photo opportunity right?
At first I was so bummed about this museum, but then we went upstairs and found all of these goodies.
The boys had no trouble figuring out what kid of dinosaur this was.
These "bones" were actually a rubber puzzle the kids can put together.
We had to pry Lincoln away from the "sand" table.
We were all pretty impressed with the woolly mammoth.
Indian dwelling.
Not a great pic, but this is a puppet theater stocked with bug puppets that the kids can put a bug puppet show on with. How cool is that?
Utah state bird. I asked the kids if they knew what this was and one said an "eagle" and the other said a "pigeon" I think we need to work on that one.
They boys thought this rock was cool. I think that they will appreciate it all when they are older. They couldn't understand that this stuff wasn't man made. They kept asking if it was glass, even then they were impressed. How much more impressed would they be with Mother Nature?
