Don't Go!
Last Saturday we planned to go and check out the "hands on children's museum". It was going to be a perfect day, Silas was getting off of work early, we were going on a family outing somewhere educational yet fun! Not so much!


The best way to describe this place is to say... imagine a bigger McDonald's playground except only nastier or option 2...imagine a place where a guy got a bunch of donated old toys and decided he would open up a children's museum/play park.

After paying $14.50 for the 3 of us to go in we walked around looking at each other as if to say what have we gotten ourselves into. First off Jolee wouldn't even get down the first 15 or so minutes we were there (but we couldn't really blame her)! I asked Silas at one point just go tell that guy she will not get down and play so can we have our money back and we will be on our way. Silas looks at me and says..."T" they probably don't have that kinda machine here to reimburse the credit card (that's the kind of place we were at) he said lets just play a little bit and get out of here, we will make the best of it.

Jolee finally did get down and start sliding on the slide and she loved it!

Her and Daddy played with these gadget things!

And you are looking at one GREAT DADDY, who is in the germ infested ball pit playing with his daughter just so she would have a good time! You could actually see his skin crawling that's how bad it was killing him to be in there! I mean people, WORSE than McDonald's, actually it was McDonald's old stuff, it still had the McDonald's logo on it! Told ya it was old donated stuff.

Ok so maybe I'm not giving this place the credit they deserve, they did have little section's set up like a bank, grocery store, post office, etc, etc, that you could play with but it was so dirty and filthy looking why would you want to touch it much less play with it. We lasted just about an hour in there and we were DONE! As soon as we walked out of that "hands on children's museum" we got the wipes out and the purell and basically all took a bath in it, I'm talking we washed arms, legs, faces, anything that got even close to touching anything in that place.

I would probably be the wrong person to ask to do a survey or leave them any feedback, because it would be...this place is NASTY with a capital N! I also would say.. Don't GO!

When we got home Jolee layed in front of the sliding doors that were opened and watched the rain fall! I thought it was a cute picture and had to share!
