File this one under, What was I thinking?

Easter Monday here is an official bank Holiday, so Danny had off work. After being cooped up in the house all weekend due to the sucktastic weather, we decided to take an outing to the Science Museum.

First of all, heading to a location that is sure to be rife with children while they are out of school is a bad idea. Especially when it is 30 degrees outside so everyone is looking for indoor things to do.
Secondly, heading out with a 2.75 year old who has been hopped up on sugar for two days and not napping for three days is just a bad, bad idea.

We only made it through one floor of the 5 before deciding to throw in the towel and head back home.

Kate did have some fun before the meltdowns started.

This exhibit shows the mechanisms for different types of locks. Perfect to prepare your child for life as a cat-burgler.
