Visit a Unique Museum with your Kids
We’ve been checking in with one of our most inspirational mama writers on the web, Josyln of Simple Lovely. And, looky here, since she’s been on her shopping hiatus, Joslyn’s been getting extra creative on her weekend outings. Lucky us! That means more inspiration.
Josyln and her daughters recently went on a pilgrimage to the National Cowgirl Museum and Hall of Fame in Ft. Worth, Texas. Which got us thinking….
What a great activity! That is, to visit unique, interesting or offbeat museums not too far from your home.
Here’s a list of some other unusual museums to visit. Please do contribute your own museum suggestions in the comments section and include the city in which the museum resides. Thanks!
