Garden of the God's Visitor Center Dinosaur Chase



I love what they've done


with the Garden of the God's Visitor Center


Bright colored pictures 


and interactive displays work wonders for engaging children.


The dinosaur mural is incredible.


It truly looks 3D.


The girls really enjoyed pretending to be chased.


Riding the buffalo was pretty cool too.


Oh and can't forget the lunch spot.

Littleton Museum 1860s Living Farms


1860s Living Farm Littleton Museum




The log cabin look


of the 1860s


living farm


casts such a dramatic backdrop 


for the longhorn cows 


and white beehive boxes.


You can almost 


see and hear 


the would be


everyday bustle


of farm life.


The empty chatter of children


running and playing in the school yard.


So different from


todays children


glued to their devices.


Yesteryear's children 


knew how to entertain themselves.

Littleton Museum Living Farms 1890s and Blacksmith Shop



Littleton Museum 1890s Farm and Blacksmith Shop



Seeing something in real life 


as apposed to reading it in a book,


or watching it on TV 


truly brings it to life.


You see it in a whole new way.


At Littleton Museum a person can experience 


farm life from another century.


Starting with the peacock.


He was really putting on a show.


The gardens were also 


putting on 


a spectacular 


show!


Love the trumpet vine 


covered archway.


So beautiful.
