Mummies and Sharks and Dinousars, OH MY!

Alec has been listening to the Magic Tree House books on CD for a while now. They are beginner chapter books with 6-10 short chapters. Each one is not only a cute story of a brother/sister pair that have adventures but they are also fairly historically accurate. Two of his favorites are "Mummies in the Morning" and "Dinosaurs before Dawn". So, last week we took Alec to the Smithsonian's Museum of Natural History to check out the mummies and dinosaurs. He really enjoyed it.



Mummies are now his favorite thing to draw. See them all on my mother's day card? Ave asked him where their hands and legs are, he responded with "Dadddddy, they are all wrapped up in fabric". Ha, see, he did learn something.
