Academy of Natural Sciences

We took the train into the City and the kiddies got to experience the Academy of Natural Sciences for the first time. There is so much to look at there- it's a really neat experience we hope they'll continue to enjoy over the years.

They have an amazing variety of dioramas at the museum. In these photos they look like paintings, but they are incredibly detailed dioramas of a variety of animals and settings.




The museum also has a fabulous Children's Nature Center to explore.

(Training up to work with Uncle Mike some day...)



And then on to the Dinosaurs!




We took some time to relax at Logan Square




Mama had to get a shot of the blue-eyed boys in their blue shirts...

I believe you may have found one of Philly's hidden secrets .... I know I loved to take Josh and Justin there when they were little guys.

Looks like a cool museum. Owen can intern with Uncle Mike anytime! :)

That looks like so much FUN! You are so lucky to have that all close by to you.
