Fresh eyes
Aimee really enjoyed the Bethnal Green Museum of Childhood. This place is a museum of toys and recently underwent a 9 million pound refurbishment and extension. It is also a great open space to let Aimee run around like a demented loon. We were guilty of feeding her our muffin and some popcorn but I think the thing that got her hyped up was the large amount of freshly squeezed and very sweet apple juice she consumed.
The world seen through toddler eyes is different to adults. In a museum for example, a carefully preserved specimen that has survived decades holds equal fascination to..the radiator next to it. A giant robot that clunks and whistles is fascinating, but so is the stair bannister it is adjacent too. How amazing to see everything in the world as fresh as a toddler sees it?
