Baby Phat

After fond memories of going to the Children's Museum in Portland, OR when I was but a hatchling, I thought it would be a delight to take Carleigh. It was, however, a bit of a disappointment.
The facility was only one level an and big as a school gymnasium and very "kidy"...toddler heaven, but for Carleigh (an adult in a mere 9 yr-old body) it wasn't too pleasing.

We did find sanctuary in the Moon Sand! Think of that blue putty that you put on walls to hold up pictures with a grainy texture. Oh, the masterpieces we made!

The next best thing was, of course, painting with finger paints. Carleigh was thankful the artistic opportunity; however, we decided that our next excursion should be one of pottery-making.

The trip to downtown Atlanta was at least informative and entertaining as the "humans" you walk past are quite out of this world.
