We had a wonderful time at the Children's Museum in Phoenix on our last visit. Although pretend playing was fun, the kids especially enjoyed the crafts room where they made robots (Alex named his "Joe") and watercolor paintings with glittery paint. It's the first time Sophia used the scissors!
Great Arizona Puppet Theater
For our recent visit to Arizona, we went to a neat puppet theater to visit to see a production of "Baby Bear Goes to School." It featured Baby Bear with his mom and dad, his teacher Ms. Heron, and classmates, Trina Skunk and Oscar Otter! We had fun making puppets before and after the show and singing songs before the show and meeting the puppeteers after the show. Alex and Sophia enjoyed it so much, we'll definitely need to return.

Happy Birthday Grandpa Mike (@ NHM)
To celebrate Grandpa's birthday, we went with Grandpa, Abuelita, Tia Suzi's family and Tio Nick's family to the LA Natural History Museum! We saw the beautiful dioramas of animals from different areas, dinosaur fossils (even had a Dinosaur Encounter with a baby triceratops), living bugs and insects (including a millipede and hissing cockroach up close, which he would not touch), and gems and minerals. Alex also got to see under a microscope and through a telescope and binoculars!
