The Magic House











While we were in St. Louis, we went to The Magic House. If anyone is going to be in the area, you have to do this. This place is so neat. The kids had fun, Chase had fun and I had fun. The museum is 4 floors of interactive exhibits for kids of all ages. They even had a room for little Cambri where she got to be involved and stimulated by touching bubbles, balls and water. There was a little town that the kids got to grocery shop in, learn about electricity, bank, fish and set up their own house. This was the location of the incident. Little Marley walked off, went into the elevator and went down. When we noticed she was missing, you can imagine the panic of all of us. Luckily the employees are stationed in every room and once they found out that Marley was missing, they locked down every single room and people had to stay put until we found her. When they radioed us that she was downstairs, Heidi and I were bawling and Marley was perfectly content. In the panic, I accidentally misplaced Izzy but Chase was with it enough to help look plus hold onto our own kids. After that though, we still managed to have fun. The bubble room was awesome and probably our favorite part. You could stand in a machine that formed around you, you could blow bubbles bigger than basketballs plus tons of other bubbly things. Izzy didn't want to leave. She climbed up into the tree house and didn't want to come down. Her dad actually led her up there and he was having so much fun that he kind of forgot that a three year old was trying to follow him and she is not as quick. Anyway, The Magic House in St. Louis should be on anyones list of things to do with kids.
