Winston Salem Childrens Museum

Our children's playgroup all got together and went to the Winston-Salem Children's Museum. We hadn't been there so it was a lot of fun exploring everything. It was a really rainy day, so it was a little crowed, but still fun.

Random pictures around the museum. Most of these pictures were taken in the storybook room. The entire room had books everywhere that pertained to the things the kids were playing with. 3 little bears (had a little house with 3 beds and 3 chairs, etc), the billy goats gruff, had a bridge and stuffed goats and the troll, etc. It was really cute.

Peyton LOVED this part of the museum. I think we spent at least 30 minutes here. Winston-Salem is home to the original Krispie Kreme Donut so because of this, they have an entire room dedicated to Krispie Kreme. They have little plastic donuts that the kids get to "make". They put on an apron and a hat (which Peyton wouldn't take off, so we took the hat home. I think it was ok!) Anyways the donuts went up a conveyor belt, then dropped down a chute onto a tray. Then a kid would take the tray and dump the donuts onto a little conveyor belt, which would in turn drop them onto another conveyor belt, and then they would go up again and then drop out the end where someone would be holding a tray. Peyton loved running the middle conveyor belt (all the belts were ran by turning a big wheel) and would push kids away when they wanted a turn. He really isn't great at sharing. It was cute to watch him be so excited about how this worked.

They even had a grocery store complete with little black aprons. (Notice Peyton still has his hat on. I guess he is working his 2nd job and forgot to completely change uniforms). Peyton enjoyed working in the Deli in this store and then going shopping for food. Not so much fun putting it all back though!
