If you as ask Kayleigh what she did for her friend Lily's birthday party she will tell you that she went to the moon! In our city we have found a place called Baby Dream Land. I'm not quite sure why they call it that since a child under 3 can not participate in any of the activities but none the less it is wonderful. They have tons of different stations that you can choose to participate in and pretend to be things like a fire fighter, airplane pilot, doctor, and astronaut to name a few. Lily chose for them to all be astronaut and go to the moon. It was really neat. The kids dressed up in astronaut suits and learned all about how a rocket works. I have to give complete credit to my friend Brooke who did a ton of the translating from Chinese to English for the kids. They actually entered a space ship simulation and they closed the doors. The space ship moved all around just like if they were taking off to the moon. Once they landed, another door was opened and they were on the moon! The kids just loved it! All the girls also pretended to be nurses in a hospital and learned how to take care of newborn babies. The pretend babies really weighed around 10 pounds it was crazy! I can foresee that Kayleigh will choose to have her birthday there because she had so much fun!
Our little astronauts!

We took a break and had some cake and the kids decided to get on stage and do a little dance.
The nurses ready for duty. I love their costumes! So 1950's!
