Monday, June 14 (second Monday in June) With 3 babies enrolled-- Kindermusik happened at the Arlington location. Since Lil's Dad is off this week, he got her there and we joined them to watch. It will be up to us to participate with her the next two Mondays.
I will say that the teacher apologized profusely for not notifying us that the class would NOT be held last Thursday in Hurst (since we drove there last week -see other Kindermusik blog entry)
The teacher has a lovely voice and sang the entire class time (about 45 min). Class time included play with balls and objects that rattled, there was dancing, stretching sorts of exercises and some rather funky Australian Outback sounding music. She received a book, a cd, a poster and a Lily sized shirt which says, "I'm a Kindermusik kid".
Lily had not had a restful night before coming to class, so she and her Dad took a detour home to see about a short nap for her, before the rest of the planned adventures. Class along with a sleepless night took its toll, She was asleep when we got to her house and she slept about an hour.
Next stop, Science Museum in Ft. Worth. I hear you, now---, a Science museum for a 10 month old? It is a very interactive place for children of all ages. For Lily’s age, there is water to play in, soft places to crawl on and toys to play with, and many strange textures to experience along with really cool bubble tubes. And then there is the glass elevator.
For older kids, there are construction type play areas, art/creative areas, a grocery store, with kid sized shopping carts and “fake produce” which actually “scans”. This will be a place to bring Lily for years to come.
For the adults on this particular trip, there was a Leonardo da Vinci exhibit including models of his unique machinery designs and some of his works of art as well. Nick’s comment was “wonder if he ever slept?” An amazing thinker and creator.
The third stage of our Monday adventure was a stop at Dos Gringos, a restaurant near the museum where we all enjoyed some very good Mexican food.
Lily was again, asleep when we got her home around 2:45 and I heard later that she slept til 5 . A fun adventure for a Monday of B’s week off. Thanks for including us.
