Visiting Brooklyn Children's Museum

Since we always celebrate special occasions by going out and spending time with each other, today on Father's Day, we decided to go to Brooklyn Children's Museum. We thought it will be difficult to find a parking spot but luckily we were able to park on the second time of circling around the museum to find a spot.

We stayed for a long time in the Sensory Room. My daughter enjoyed being in the hammock and took more than one turn in that. She also liked the rocking boat that can be upended if kids are in the mood to climb it instead.

My daughter also enjoyed making pretend pizza, and serving it to her Dad in the Pizzeria which can be found in the World Brooklyn exhibit. It was funny when she was insisting that her Daddy had to pay a hundred for the pizza and juice that she served him. My husband told her maybe she meant 100 kisses and she was insisting people paid with money when eating out.

It was a great way to spend a family day, my daughter and her Daddy enjoyed putting plastic bugs together, designing their mas costume, creating their mask together, doing puzzles together among other things.

Next time we visit Brooklyn Children's Museum, we'll start with Totally Tots. We ran out of time my daughter on;y enjoyed this part for a few minutes.
