Running Piano



This piano is in the main hall of Moody Gardens.  It is advertising their next 'Discovery' exhibit.  It was a hit, and it kept the kiddos entertained for a looong time!  We had to pull them away so that we could go into the Rainforest Pyramid.

Magnifying



This exhibit had feathers, snake skin, bean pods, and other items found in the rain forest available for kids to magnify.  Austin loved looking at these things with the magnifying glass.  We spent a good five minutes in this same, humid spot!

Mist and a Monkey


Austin loved playing in the mist that was falling from above...I was freaked out about the monkey hanging on the door handles in front of him!  Eventually, the monkey raced around us and we raced into the building.

Penguin Encounters



























Posing for Penguins



Penguin Snack

This was the snack that Austin made in his "Tiny Tuxedos" camp today. It was made out of Oreos and Reese's pieces.




Two things that are amazing to me about this snack:


1. This was created/served at 10 in the morning


2. Reese's pieces--In today's world I feel like you are not allowed to have a peanut butter sandwich in public for the fear that the child with peanut allergies might have a reaction. Yet here we are using Reese's pieces openly and not one parent complained!

Silly Seal

Austin is enrolled in the Moody Gardens Preschool Adventure Program. This particular week they learned all about seals. The craft was a seal visor. I LOVE it...he HATES it. But Austin did wear it for me to get a picture!
