December Fun

Maddie had this week off from school so we did lots of fun things around the house because it was so cold out! We also ventured out a few times so she didn't get too stir crazy!


On Wednesday 12/27, Joseph took Maddie to the Garfield Park Conservatory

Some Fun at home!

On Saturday, I took Maddie to Peggy Notebaert Museum over in Lincoln Park. It was our first time there (I checked out a free museum pass at the library). It was terribly cold that day but luckily we parked in the lot across the street and ran across the street into the museum!  The museum was lovely! They had a water area where kids could learn about water ways. They had a small reptile/bug area and also a butterfly room upstairs!They had a few other rooms too. I did not know we could bring our own lunch, so we had to leave a little earlier than anticipated so Maddie could eat lunch. Next time we will pack a lunch so we can spend more time there!

 

She LOVED playing with these plastic "dirt" pellets
