Please Touch Museum, in Philadelphia

This is a belated post, as per usual.  We just have too much going on right now!  Our week last week was so crazy with something going on every day and every night, it was kind of awful, but the kids had fun.  I'm glad to be getting back to some semblance of normalcy this week though (and our regular sleeping schedule!).
Tuesday the 10th I took the kids to the Please Touch Museum in Philadelphia.  I had gotten half price tickets from LivingSocial.com, as did my parents and my sister Dawn, so we all met a little after 10 in the morning and all walked around/tried to keep track of our kids together.  It was a huge place with lots of different play section for the kids, they had a blast!
It seemed to be geared toward preschool/grade school age kids.

"water play" section:
Katy was a little small for it but enjoyed trying to get herself soaking wet anyway :P
big piano:
tree house:
Alice in Wonderland section:
The "hospital":
Joanna love this section and spent quite a while here, fixing the the babies and her pop-pop :)

Kira driving Katy somewhere on the pirate ship:
Chase really enjoyed the grocery store section:

Our tickets that we purchase also came with carousal ride tickets and the kids each got to ride twice.  They loved it!
Katy was NOT happy about it at first but then had fun once we started moving.
Isn't Kira just the cutest?!
We let the kids play for a couple hours and then had lunch:
Having more fun with pop-pop:
And we all posed at the cut-outs before heading home :P
It was a fun day, but very tiring!

That place seems so fun! I wish we had one! Also, is today Joanna's birthday? If so, Happy Birthday Joanna!

Oops, no it's not. I guess that's one of those tickets that stops at the birthday :-
Her birthday was a couple weeks ago.

Looks like a lot of fun! Maybe it would be worth it to get a membership one year.
