Indoor Fun

I found out storytime at Barnes and Noble was Thursday at 11 in the summer, so decided that would be our Thursday activity. Very much look forward to these kind of days because I get Starbucks, and also inside with AC and pushing a stroller is waaaaay easier than outside in the heat lugging around kids and their stuff.

We had a peaceful start and enjoyed our scone before heading to the children's section very early (you never know with these things) and had time to read some books ourselves before the crowd showed up. And when I say crowd I mean a huge "field trip" from some daycare with school kids. Lets just say we will be waiting until the school year starts up again before going to any more B&N story times, and we'll see how they are after that.

On our way to lunch we found this fun board that had different pictures on it! Totally fun to keep them entertained.

Then we headed to have lunch while watching the ice skaters. Lorelei had a blast and loved to imitate them skating backwards, twirling, and working on their dance (to Thriller I might add, think I want to go back same day next week to see how much better they are) and Makin loved dancing to the music. We even got to see the Zamboni afterwards! Maybe you don't know what that is? The little machine that drives around and cleans up the ice. Yep, learned something from Caillou didn't ya? ;) Only Caillou gets to ride one, and she was a bit annoyed she didn't get to as well, but the driver did wave to her. :)
