Blueberry Picking | 採藍莓、吃藍莓

(Please scroll down for English translation)

原來採藍莓也能看出小孩個性!G籃子全空,把所以採得藍莓吃光;H籃子滿滿的,直到採完才開吃。原來GH個性如此不一樣!

七月還沒到,天氣已經熱的不像話,好險採藍莓是在傍晚,不然我們真的會曬成人乾。這次的藍莓園地點是我們非常喜歡的Blooms and Berries,採完還能去動物餵食區。藍莓季快結束了,快點上網預約時間吧!

Blooms & Berries

G’s basket was completely empty because she ate all the blueberries she picked; H’s basket was full because she didn’t start eating until she was done picking. Who knew G and H had such different personalities!

The weather is already unbearably hot before July. We went to one of our favorite places, Blooms and Berries for blueberry picking. The time slots are around dawn, which the breeze can feel very nice. After blueberry picking, we visited the petting zoo. Blueberry season is almost over, so hurry and save your spot online!

館方資訊

地址:3000 N Meridian St, Indianapolis, IN 46208

網站:childrensmuseum.org

門票:平日(大人$30、小孩$25)週末(大人$34、小孩$29),每個月第一個星期四下午4點到8點只要$6。


全美第一名的兒童博物館,絕對名符其實。還沒開到停車場時,已經看到恐龍破壞建築進入和出來博物館,立刻進入情境。雖然離我們家開車兩小時,但好玩到我和UN立刻升級為年票!

博物館一共五層樓和室外將近8英畝的戶外運動區域(冬天僅限室內活動)。每層樓都有超多好玩和有趣的互動體驗,從外太空到恐龍化石,從歷史人物介紹到亞洲文物介紹,我們學到好多新知識,小孩們也玩得很開心。

我們一家人最喜歡的區域是Playscape,開放給五歲以下的小朋友玩,連還不會走路的小寶寶都有專屬空間。有小寶寶的家長,這裡有哺乳室和全家用的廁所,有過敏體質的人也不用擔心,這整區是防過敏區(不能在這裡進食,除了餵奶和喝水)。進去Playscape後,小孩能穿上防水衣開始玩水,這一區我們就能待上快一小時。館內還有STEM相關玩具、樂器館、沙堆、美術活動⋯等等。在Playscape輕鬆帶一整天絕對不是問題!

戶外空間3月中剛開放,相信我們一家人一定會玩得超開心。結束後,我們在Bru Burger Bar用晚餐。這家是我們住在這裡的朋友推薦的漢堡店,超大份nachos和很香很油的漢堡。

Well deserved title of the No. 1 children’s museum in the US. Before you even enter the parking lot, you will spot dinosaurs breaking into and out of the museum, really catching your attention. Even though we live two hours away, but it’s so much fun here that we didn’t even think twice about getting the annual membership!

Museum has 5 levels and an 8 acre outdoor sports exhibit (closed during the winter months). Every floor has many interactive and fun things to do. From space to dinosaur fossils, from human history to artifacts from around the world, we all can learn so much with the kids.

Our favorite area is the Playscape, it is open to kids below the age of 5, and there’s even an area for crawling infants. There’s also nursing rooms and family restrooms. The entire space is allergen free as no foods are allowed inside except for milk and water. As you enter Playscape, kids can put on splash vests and start playing with the indoor fountain. There are various STEM related toys, music room, sand pits, arts and crafts, etc. It’s very easy to spend the whole day here!

The outdoor space opens in mid March, and we can’t wait! We went to Bru Burger Bar for dinner afterwards, recommended by our friend who used to live in Indy. Huge portion of nachos and gourmet hamburgers. Yum!

Summer Camping in Ohio

(Please scroll down for English translation.)

四位九月寶寶一起去露營,沒刻意安排行程。三天兩夜由小孩帶領,卻意外讓我們在營區裡大大收穫。肯定是大自然的力量,讓小孩在野外過得特別開心。早上醒來,立刻開機在草地上跑。看來,我們得多加利用還未轉冬的天氣,帶寶寶們出去露營。

Four September babies camping. We purposely didn’t plan any activities, wanted to see how the kids do. All three families enjoyed some great bonding and laughter at the campsite for three days and two nights. We must take advantage of the last bit of summer and do more camping!
