I have been wanting to go to the Toy Museum in Zionsville for awhile and we went today. We saved it for a rainy day ! Kelly and the kids went with Wyatt and I. We got there and an older gentleman guided us through the 3 floors of "Antique" toys. I did learn that the owners are also the owners of Carter Van Lines. They have collected antique toys for over 50 years and just opened this museum. It was fun but I think the kids would have had more fun if they could touch and play with more. A lot of the toys were in cases for good reason, but children have a very short atttention span for that. But, everything they could climb in and ride they did. The whole basement was rides and the 3rd floor was a Carousel.
We were the only people there this morning so we got great treatment. The kids had the place to themselves.
Wyatt has a hard time with "fake people" so he was not fond of Ronald McDonald, Superman or the talking tree. Oh, and there was this clown Wyatt had his eye on( I will not admit it but I don't even like clowns, creppy creeperson!!!!). The only reason I got a picture of him near daffy duck and goofy is because Jake is in there. He did make it through the morning with much coaxing. I am certain he will grow out of this soon.
I was sure that the old school bumper cars would be a hit bt of course that darn clown had to be in the corner. Everytime we got near it he was reminded of it all over again. I had fun on the bumper cars. I don't remember them being so rough, much be age. My brain was rattled....hahahaha, no need to comment!!!
They have an "old fashioned" ice cream store that we went to for lunch and for ice cream.
Sarah was having some ice cream. I think she liked it, but her face was not so convincing the whole time!!
