September Visit to the Forest

Today was our day to go back to DinoQuest and the Fontenelle Forest. Asher at 21 months says, "Dino!" and points to each dinosaur as we approach them. Both Addison and Asher like to touch all the things on the signs, too. Addison likes Acorn Acres best and can care less about the dinos. She likes to dig for fossils best. I tried to explain to them that the dinosaurs were no longer living and what happened to them. Oh, that opened a big can or whys from Addison. She could not grasp what happened to the dinosaurs. I left it with her that they were all sleeping forever. It was quite busy today for some reason, but we visited around lunch time today (during more showings) instead of in the early morning hours. We still had fun!

When planning a visit to the Forest, keep these things in mind:
1. Only the boardwalk is stroller friendly
2. Packs snacks, drinks, and hand wipes
3. Bring bug spray! The mosquitoes were horrible this month!
4. Bring well rested kiddos who are ready to play - it is a lot of fun!
5. Don't forget to play in the basement (take the elevator inside to the lower level). There is cool stuff down there, too!
