Jasmine Moran

We went to the Jasmine Moran museum in Seminole last Friday morning. By getting up early, we were able to beat some of the buses and buses (did I mention buses?) of daycares that showed up later in the day. My parents had taken Grant last summer and Mom joined us (and even treated!) for this adventure, too. The boys were at a great age for most of the stuff, although there is a lot of science stuff that would be better suited for older elementary kids.

We took nearly 100 pictures this day! These may not be the best, but they were shots of what the boys enjoyed the most.

The actual airplane cockpit. They had a blast messing with the zillions of controls. Grant remembers that his Bubba (my dad) used to fly airplanes so he was talking about that, and then Kyle is so into anything related to engines and steering wheels so they were both in heaven here!
Here's the television studio! They had a riot seeing themselves on TV (so did I!).

Archaeologists (or is it paleontologist?) uncovering a buried dinosaur!!! Roarrrr!
Hands down, by far, the favorite area for both (new since Grant's last visit apparently):
The red sports car! You could do a variety of things in the engine, totally change tires, get under the car and change the muffler (and something else!), etc, etc, etc.... we were in this area probably 45 minutes total the entire day.


There is also a huge indoor climbing slide, water works area, grocery store, dentist office, courtroom, construction site, doctors office and real ambulance they can get in to, meteorology area, baby nursery, outdoor train ride and stations, a huge outdoor maze (Grant figured it out - I got lost!!!!), and other interactive stations.
If you need a day in the cool, go visit!
