Buell Children's Museum in Pueblo, CO

At the beginning of last year, I purchased one of those coupon deals to the Buell Children's Museum in Pueblo, Colorado. Pueblo is about 45 minutes south of Colorado Springs. And there is no children's museum in Colorado Springs - so we have to go to Pueblo or Denver for that option. Anyway, we invited our friends Julie and Lily Turner to come with us so we could have some company in the car and at the museum. And they had never been before either so it worked out perfectly!

I was a little disappointed with this museum. They had tons of art projects available for kids to do which would have been perfect if Chloe wasn't with me - but many of them involved cutting out things and assembling things and she is not quite old enough for that! She did love painting and coloring some Christmas themed pictures. There was a little barn area with play food, a section of treats/sweets to play with (pretend), some computers to play on, and a log house to build. We played for a little while and then ate our sack lunches and then played a little more before heading home. The girls had fun so that is what is important but I don't think we'll be heading back to this museum anytime soon!
