I know, though technically not in Mississippi, the new Louisiana Children’s Museum just opened up and we couldn’t help ourselves from checking it out. I was headed there anyway to drop off a painting and we figured might as well make a fun day trip out of it. The new museum is pretty incredible. It’s huge! Has lots to do for kids of all ages both indoor and outdoor. The exhibits are numerous and plenty on two floors; baby/toddler area, bubble area, grocery store, music room, river system, art studio, courtyard, outdoor play fort area, library, machine area, and more. There’s a large restaurant on the first floor as well as gift shop. With the museum perched on the water the views are incredible! Lots of areas just to lounge and enjoy the scenery from the deck. We can’t wait to go back!
