Discovery Gateway in SLC

We've been to the Discovery Gateway museum in Salt Lake City several times over the years, but never before with a tiny toddler. (Oh my goodness...did I just call my baby a toddler?) It was lots of fun watching Melissa play and have fun!

The first stop was to play with the balls. We could have stayed there all day if I hadn't felt like making sure Melissa tried all the exhibits.
 Melissa discovered (get it, "discovered," ha ha!) that it's a lot of fun to climb in the ball bin!
 I definitely think we've got a future race car driver on our hands! And if she looks at all the other drivers with those big beautiful eyes of hers, they are bound to pull over and let her pass. :)
 Playing with water is always lots of fun, although Melissa wasn't interested in staying with the water for too long. By the time we got there she had picked up on the fact that there was lots and lots of fun things to do and play all around her.
 Morgan and Brynne mostly went around and did their own things. Last time we went I stuck with Brynne, and Morgan went off on her own a bit. Kind of weird to let them both go off on their own and have a baby to stay with...

Brynne did come play with Melissa in the farm area for a short while. Brynne got a sheep outfit for Melissa and a cow outfit for herself to dress up in. I don't think I'd mind being a farmer if my farm animals were always this cute:
 Brynne spent a lot of her time creating cartoon illustrations and creating short videos. She also went to see the helicopter, did the weather news, and a few other fun things. I sneaked a picture of her playing music on the huge xylophone:
 Morgan spent most of her time playing balls and building things.
Today I am really grateful for free passes to places where kids can learn while having a really fun time!
