Visit to the Please Touch Museum

On Saturday, February 7th we were invited to a birthday party at the Please Touch Museum in Philadelphia. The Please Touch Museum is a fantastic place with children and adults. The entire museum is child friendly and children are encouraged to touch everything! There are full sized city buses an entire city street with stores they can play in and explore. One of the most amazing attractions is a full sized antique carousel that was built in 1908 and that was recently lovingly refurbished.

The museum recently moved to Memorial Hall in Fairmount Park Philadelphia. Memorial Hall was built in 1876 for the Centennial Celebration of the United States. The building is magnificent and it was worth the trip over the bridge just to see it.

Lizzie had a FANTASTIC time at both the party and the museum. She was exhausted and was asleep within 10 minutes when we started home. Here are just a few pictures. My personal favorites are the Lizzie "Elton John" pictures!
