Eric Carle Museum

Evan loves to read! He has always liked being read to at night and now he loves reading on his own. He will sit on the floor and turning the pages of any book for quite a long time. He often brings a book to mommy or daddy and sits down ready to read. One book that he really enjoys is The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle and so today we went to the Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art. We met Jackie and Evalyn there, whom we hadn't seen since last June! At the museum, they have an art gallery, a library, a gift shop and a hands-on art studio where everyone is encouraged to be an artist. Evan and Evalyn had the most fun reading in the library and making tissue paper collages in the art studio. Unfortunately, we forgot to go back and get the collages they made once they were dry. It was a fun afternoon for both the kids and the moms!
