Snowy Days with Ezra Jack Keats

Today we went to the Skirball Museum to check out Ezra Jack Keats' exhibit.  He is one of my favorite children's authors and I was very excited to see such a large space dedicated to his work.  There were interactive story books and many things that the kids could touch and wear (i.e. goggles inspired by his book Goggles).  Afterwards we went to the Children's Art Studio where the boys took recyclable materials and created an invention to help the world.  Noah made a "Bee Saver" that could suck up bees and transport them to their natural habitat and Micah made a "Tar Robot" that sucks up tar from the ocean.  This was a great day of discovery for all of us, wouldn't you agree???
