It's "Museum Monday" (Ty's title), and today we took the bus to the MFA.
I was kind of iffy about this trip... I wasn't sure how much fun a 3 and not-yet-2 year-old would have hanging out with works of art.
But as usual, the kids proved my reservations wrong. They loved it- especially Tyler. He was drawn in by the sculptures- all of them. Jennie liked the contemporary art and the impressionist stuff- but Ty said he wasn't a huge fan of the Monets. They both were blown away by the rotunda- they sat down and took in all of the paintings on the ceiling.
I've got to be honest, I am learning a ton taking them out and about. I've never paid much attention to art before, but Tyler was just so interested, it forced me to read the descriptions and learn a bit too.
Next week, we're heading to the JFK Library and Museum. Again, I'm not sure how much they'll like, but they'll probably surprise me again.
Jennie with the giant baby head- Ty wouldn't stand by it. He said it was "too creepy."
Riding the bus... half of the fun!
Brown bagging it downstairs next to a table of museum guides talking about art- or something.
