Poster Child part II


Andy Warhol once predicted that everyone would have 15 minutes of fame. But I have to wonder, does the clock start ticking if your moment of glory comes before you even start kindergarten?

Check it out! There's Sydney – larger than life!
The Children's Museum's new outdoor campaign debuted yesterday, and three of the billboards feature Sydney in all her finger painting glory. The above photo is just west of downtown and can be seen from I-35. She's also on a sign near the zoo, as well as a board in Cloquet. We took a trip last night to check it out.

Sydney was disappointed that I wouldn't let her run through the field so she could actually touch the sign.
A few hours earlier, Jeff had taken the kids to explore the new Museum, which opened yesterday. The new Dino-dig site earned top marks from both Sydney and AJ. With sand to sift through, goggles to wear and bones to uncover, what's not to love?


They were also quite excited to discover the Castle exhibit was back. I suspect AJ's interest in knights might suddenly be renewed.


At bedtime, AJ informed me he'd made some new friends but he couldn't remember their names and he probably wouldn't play with them much anymore. He then explained he had fun playing with other kids at the Museum.

Sydney enthused that she liked digging for dinosaurs, and they found one, but it was really buried and they couldn't get it out. She also liked the castle and the playhouse.

According to Jeff, she also really likes the Museum's president, whom she's met several times. When she spotted him, she grinned and waved. It's good when you can be the face of a product you fully endorse.
