This family's experience:

Activities: We visited the Sedgwick Museum of Earth Sciences. It's free to enter and Erin loved the huge dinosaur looking bones. We spent the most amount of time colouring here instead of looking at what there was

Highlights: Erin loved the huge dinosaur looking bones! Unfortunately, once she discovered a table with some colouring sheets she lost interest in anything else ✨
