School Holidays, Part 6: meeting with Caitlin and Elly at the
Australian Museum
Caitlin and Elly have returned from their stay in Canberra and are back living in Sydney.
We met them at the Australian museum and were impressed how much they both grew!
They are not just taller:Caitlin’s English has improved a lot and Elly is a curious walking toddler
The girls enjoyed puppets and dress ups
The big girls enjoyed playing with dinosaurs and dressing up, while the little girls
explored various materials. Alma tried to listen to the big dried bean pods like you
listen to a big sea shell...
Nimo and friends in the dress up pod
Alma had a fantastic time exploring with all the senses
Alma also enjoyed the dress ups pod, the live frog display and touching various skins. Elly liked
the library section!
When we had enough of the play area we headed
off to lunch at the museum’s cafe and
afterwards the girls had a run around the foyer
We looked at the skeletons, bugs and butterflies and ended the tour with the dinosaurs’ exhibition.
Elly and Mum Lily meeting a new friend
The last part of the tour the girls spent at the interactive display of dangerous animals in Australia, squealing in delight and screaming with fear as crocodiles, sharks
and other creepy crawlies “attacked” them.
