Mummmmmmyyyyyyy!

We went with another homeschooling family to a local Museum in Wichita (Museum of World Treasures). We are currently learning about Egypt and Mummies. I liked what they had but wished there was more and maybe some hands on activities for the children to do.

Checking out the inner casket of the sarcophagus

A real Mummified Lady (this really freaked Edward out)

A Canopic Jar

Just a cute little Castle Play area that they had for the children in the Museum.

Tap Dancing

Edward has been taking Tap Dancing Lessons now for almost 2 months. He seems to be enjoying it greatly. I like that they are private and I hope because of that he gains a lot of knowledge and skills from them.

Do Flaps across the room.

Young Child 3

This is Edwards last year with Kindermusik. He has Young Child 3 right now, then at the beginning of the new year he will start Young Child 4. He will graduate from the program pretty much in May but he will be able to attend the summer camp in July (or whenever it is). We will be sad to be leaving Kindermusik. It is such a wonderful program. Next school year, he will begin taking piano (for 2 years) and then after that he wants to move on to Guitar. I am hoping that during his piano lessons, that I also pick it up and then we can keep the piano when he is through.
