Another Gem

I heard that the Museum of Church History and Art in downtown Salt Lake was fun to little kids and convinced Kayla to try it out with me (along with a stop at Nordstrom Rack).  Our kids had a blast.  We started in a little room where they could harvest a garden, collect eggs from chickens, and make a meal in a tiny kitchen.  Wish I had grabbed photos of them harvesting the eggs under the stuffed chickens--too cute.

They (Kayla and I) made a tunnel for them to crawl through.



They had dress-up dolls.


And best of all, a Mexican dancing area complete with skirts and hats for girls, and vests for boys.  They had life-sized people dancing and a fun angled mirror so they could see themselves and the dancers behind them.  Sydney surprisingly jumped right in while Ethan observed.  It was adorable.


They hopped in a little truck with two steering wheels to take a spin before we headed home.  We stayed for 1 hour and could've easily been there twice as long.  There was so much stuff to do and it was free.  Built for kids and for parents!
