Bay Area Discovery Museum

Since I've been feeling well, Scott has a lot of energy and John had time off, we decided to try and do some fun things that John doesn't usually get to do with us during the day. First up was the museum in Sausalito where we had free tickets through our library. Both boys slept the whole drive then Scott woke up ready to play.

Our first stop was the tot room, which only allows shorties and adults inside to play. This water bed pond made Scott nervous at first.

After I held his hands for a few jumps that was the end of the nerves. All subsequent pictures were blurry with delight.

Crawling through carpeted tunnels.

John poked his head through one of the holes, which Scott found hilarious.

Climbing the play structure. Everything was soft and not too high which was much easier on me than outdoor playgrounds.

Splashing in the river

There were also several outdoor play places. This one was shaded and empty, so I fed Jonah while Scott and John explored.

Another tunnel. He loves those things.

He's very cautious on steps. The ground was slightly padded and the rocks were soft, though, so I was anxiety-free.

Scott found a little bench to sit on

and a rodent to ride

Scott spent a good portion of time playing with other kids in the boats and trains room.

Then he found the balls in the foam structure building area and played fetch with himself for a while.

There were other playgrounds and rooms with things like art, but after playing all morning we were ready for lunch and a nap.

We took a quick self-timer family picture in the parking lot before heading home. Scott ate his lunch on the drive back and Jonah slept the whole way again. It was a great day and encouraged us to venture out again.
