We’re off to Marbles!

We spent the day with some new friends at the children’s museum in Raleigh, called Marbles. There were SO many fun things to do and learn, and we could have spent days there!

There was an awesome money exhibit where we learned about how much things cost…

We had to carry buckets of balls to put into the ramps that filled up a giant piggy bank, which eventually came out to our waiting buckets below!

There were two flights of stairs that were a giant working piano! There was A LOT of noise in that staircase!
