New Year's Eve at the Museum


On this New Year's Eve day, the kids and I went to the Behringer Crawford Museum in Covington.  They have a wonderful holiday train display, maybe not the splash of the Duke display in Cincinnati, but more up close and personal, with buttons to push.


There is a year-round train display too, also with buttons, and the discovery today was a little cave behind the display.  You can crawl through it and pop up in one of two plastic bubbles, right next to the trains.


The place where we spend most of our time is always the steamboat replica, with speaking tubes,


dress-up clothes,


driving the boat, and fishing off the edge.  Lovely unstructured play.  I bought a pass today so we'll be going again soon.  And I'll go by myself to actually study the history displays.
