Strong Museum

Strong Museum

July 4th we had great plans to take the kids to some nice parks around here and just spend the day outside together. Then it rained and was crappy ALL day so we needed a new plan. If we stayed home it would be the same old thing as every other day. We decided to try out the Strong National Museum of Play. We have heard all kinds of things so we thought we would go there for an hour or so. We ended up coming home about 5 hours later! There is so much there to see and do for kids of all ages. Even Wilmer and I were looking at some of the display cases they have and saying "Oh I remember that game- I had one- I remember that doll/toy.." That was scary- does that mean we are old?!! There was even a lunchbox there that I still have at home! There were all kinds of hands on exhibits for both Aaron and Tyler to do. There was an indoor train ride. Aaron wasn't sure he wanted to ride on it, so I took Tyler. Of course then he wanted Daddy to take him! There were mazes for Tyler to crawl/walk thru. There were cars for Aaron to drive and play with. There is even a miniature Wegmans with working scanners and registers and receipts!! (Aaron was not impressed by this but Mommy was.) I can't believe how many things there were to do. No wonder people say you can spend all day there. It was fun! If you are ever in Rochester, especially if you have kids, you need to visit this place. It is great! Click on the picture to see more and videos too!
