Mom and I prefaced our safari adventure with a trip to the Dinosaur Park. This was the perfect adventure for Faith and Grace. They love dinosaurs! Yes, in our playroom we have a ballet bar, dress up basket and a cooking station, but the one basket that comes out every time is the dinosaur one! yes...we have a place for everything in the playroom....containers for the tea party set, balls, arts and crafts, trains, weebles, blocks, books....oh you get the picture. But let me tell you, this OCD action of mine has paid off.....the girls enjoy cleaning up and will definitely let anyone know if something is being put in the wrong container.
Back to the point, the girls have always loved dinosaurs, lizards and snakes. In fact, when mom and I went to get them a bike....we left the store with a rubber frog and a ball. When the girls were rewarded for being so good in Target, we left with a rubber snake and a dinosaur!
The girls had a great time looking at all the dinosaurs! Faith would run up to the dinosaur turn around and say "cheese"! She loves pictures! Grace would just run to the next and say, "Mommy let me show you this one....it is really big". She acted like we had been hundreds of times! They were fascinated. They were also able to dig for dinosaur bones and pick out a toy in the gift shop. We left with a shark tooth, piece of amber, mystery bone, snake and dinosaur puzzle!
There are no seven wonders of the world in the eyes of a child. There are seven million.
