Treehouse Time

We've lived twenty minutes away from the Treehouse Museum in Ogden for almost two years, and finally we made it to visit (and in the process we purchased a year-long membership for our fam).  I don't know what took us so long!  It's a great spot to take the kids on a cold or rainy day (or any other kind of day, but that seems to be the most popular time!).  The first time I took the kids we didn't even see a quarter of the exhibits/activities because Cal and Sam were so content to play with the first things they saw.  Right now they have a whole section about Clifford the Big Red Dog, and Cal and Sam are both on a Clifford kick, so that is extra fun.  We had a blast.  A week later we took Grandma E along on a visit.  It was super handy to have an extra adult so each child had a shadow as we explored the entire museum that day.  Here are some of the highlights:

A little cafe based on Clifford characters.  This was a huge hit.

In the old-fashioned one-room schoolhouse.

Sam loved this little bridge - he went up and
down and up and down while Cal was occupied
elsewhere.

Clifford's tail was a slide!

Delivering mail to Birdwell Island residents
was also a favorite of Cal's.

This time we made it upstairs and found the fire
engine!

And, I guess I forgot to take pics of the other fun things: train tables, giant blocks, another cafe, a produce stand, a music room, a hospital . . . This place is fun!  (Now, how do we keep our kids healthy after going to the germ fest?)
