The L.A. Dime

We met the Shepherd clan at the Skirball yesterday to check out the Noah’s Ark exhibit. It was an experience full of sounds, wonderful visual sights and a ton of hands-on opportunities for our little ones.
What we were probably most impressed with the use of materials to make these enormous animals. For example, an old violin case served as the head/mouth of an aligator and drums serves as the feet of an elephant. The last piece of the exhibit allowed the kids to play a variety of instruments to make various animal sounds and pretend to jump in the water puddles left behind after the rain storm. Oh, while Sophie enjoyed all the touch-n-feel stations, her favorite part was most likely climbing up a net (that was really only supposed to be for kids 4 & up) and then running above our heads in the “jungle tunnel”.
