Treasures of Napoleon at Muzeo

We had the opportunity to visit Muzeo in Anaheim last week and were able to tour their current exhibit, Treasures of Napoleon. My daughter and I had a great time taking in this amazing exhibit. I think my two year old was a bit too young to appreciate or understand any of it. He did however, have a great time at Kidzeo. Muzeo hosts Kidzeo every weekend and it is Free with admission. Kidzeo features miniature war games every Saturday from noon to 4pm and Kids crafts along with School of soldiers on Sundays from noon to 4pm.

The pieces featured in the exhibit are incredible and I think this would be an excellent place to visit if you homeschool or if your kiddos are studying world history/European history in school. I think kids would absolutely love Kidzeo. Muzeo/Kidzeo takes part in

I know it's only Tuesday but I wanted to share with you two very fun events happening at the Cabrillo Marine Aquarium in San Pedro on Sunday, October 18th and Saturday, October 24th. Sea Fair is happening on Sunday October 18th from 10am to 4:30pm. Sea Fair offers ocean-related activities for every age, which include; face-painting, an exciting marine life puppet show, and a giant origami demonstration. Adventurous pirates of all ages can join in the search for buried treasure in the “Great Treasure Hunt.” Stop by and chat with more than two dozen marine-related organizations that will be present to share their information and activities with your family. Sea Scare is happening on Saturday, October 24 from 6pm to 9pm. Have your kiddos come in costume for trick-or-treating throughout the aquarium at six different themed treat stations, or walk along the docks of the “Port Town” scare zone.
