Airport Meetup

One of my meetup groups had a fantastic idea: watch the planes and helicopters take off from a local small airport.  What a successful activity day this was for Becks, he LOVED IT! He is obsessed with planes and helicopters and to be able to see them that close—landing and taking off—was the biggest delight for him.  I will definitely be taking him here regularly—a free, FUN thing to do with kiddos!!

Science Museum + Playtown Cafe

I love all there is to do here in Florida.  I know my life will slow down when the new baby comes and I want Beck's to be able to do and enjoy as much as he can with one on one time with his Mommy and Daddy as possible.

This past week the Science Museum was having a "stroller" themed day where different vendors came and handed out free stuff to the kids (Beck's got to make a macaroni bracelet, he got a hat and sticker from the fire department that he couldn't put down, a coloring book and sticker from the police department, and many more goodies).  They had a craft booth where Beck's got to paint a wooden flower, a bounce house that he LOVED bouncing in, story time in the aquarium with all the fish (he even got to pet his first alligator; I was surprised how fearless he was), music/dance time with Patty, AND the best part a planetarium show featuring Seasame Street.  He sat through the entire show, oohing and ahhing over the stars, Big Bird, and of course Elmo!




















Another cool place we found this week was Playtown Cafe; a place for kids to explore and play in a ton of different rooms (a dress up room, a toddler zone with a tadpool, a game room, a bakery, a playground, etc.), and for adults to relax and enjoy lunch or a snack in a cook cafe.  He didn't want to leave; it was hard getting him out the door!
