Last weekend was the grand opening and they were still having a special where families arriving before 11 get in for free. No problem there! Not that I wouldn&#8217;t mind paying but the time works well for us and we were there waiting to get in at 10 am when the doors open. Such a very cool place! There&#8217;s a section called Totally Tots (for the under 5 crowd) and there was a slide, an art area, water area, sand, &#8216;theatre&#8217;, book nook, dolls and a noise making area. So cool!! It got quite crowded in there by 11 with mostly parents hovering over their kids. It got to be a little much for Sienna so we went to check out the other areas. They had a mini Brooklyn neighborhood with a bus and a bunch of stores (grocery, chinese store, caribbean store and L&amp;B Spumoni gardens where you can make your own &#8216;pizza&#8217;). There was a bunch of different nature areas and we also checked out the cafe (not much of an eatery.) Membership is really cheap too but the times don&#8217;t work out for us. They close Mondays and Tuesdays, open from 1-6 the rest of the week and only Saturday and Sunday are they open 10-6. I&#8217;m hoping since it&#8217;s because they just re-opened that they just have short hours. Hopefully they will add more hours as they work out the kinks because this is a perfect place to take Sienna during the winter on a weekday!<\/p>\n<p><img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/09\/bcmsand1blog.jpg\" alt=\"bcmsand1blog.jpg\" \/><br \/>\n<em>Playing with the blue sand with daddy.<\/em><br \/>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/09\/bcmsand2blog.jpg\" alt=\"bcmsand2blog.jpg\" \/><br \/>\n<em>Playing with the sand next to other kids<\/em><br \/>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/09\/bcmslideblog.jpg\" alt=\"bcmslideblog.jpg\" \/><br \/>\n<em>Of course the slide is one of the first things she goes to!<\/em><br \/>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/09\/bcmpythonblog.jpg\" alt=\"bcmpythonblog.jpg\" \/><br \/>\n<em>Imitating the python?<br \/>\n<\/em> <img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/09\/bcmparakeetblog.jpg\" alt=\"bcmparakeetblog.jpg\" \/><br \/>\n<em>Pointing out the parakeet<\/em><br \/>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/09\/bcmrunningblog.jpg\" alt=\"bcmrunningblog.jpg\" \/><br \/>\n<em>She&#8217;s always on the move!<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Saturday we checked out the newly opened Brooklyn Children&#8217;s Museum in Crown Heights.
