whole day at the MFA

Yesterday we met our friends Lindsay, Rosalie and Nolan at the MFA. Lindsay and I went to college just down the road together and we used to frequent the museum quite regularly back in the day. It was great to come back with our children! They had lots of activities for kids because of school vacation week.

First the kids sketched model ships:

Then they made collages. You can tell they were very serious about this craft!

They were given bags for their artwork and they loved carrying them around.

We took a break for lunch and they wanted to pose on an outdoor sculpture!

Then back to the museum to paint.

We had a fantastic time and Lindsay and I kept saying to each other that we couldn't believe how well the kids did. They actually wanted to go into the galleries to look at art, and that's something that hasn't worked too well in the past. It was an amazing day and I'm sure we'll remember it for a long time!
