Things to do/places to go with a 2 year old....

Mrs. Sarah&Micah

Hi everyone.
Tomorrow,I am babysitting my niece who is almost 2 and I was wondering if anyone had any great ideas of fun things we could do together. She's been to the Como Zoo recently- so that idea is out. Can you help suggest places/things to do?

What area of town are you in?  My DS just turned 2 in Feb.  I'm having a tough time trying to think of much - the weather is just so yuck still.  Como is always a good falback - DS loves it there!  Here are a few thoughts...

*In Woodbury there is Lookout Ridge - an indoor playground.  I think there is something similar in Eagan? 
* We also just went to the Children's Museum, which is OK for about 2 hours. 
*Otherwise, umm, bookstores/libraries might have a reading time - 2 year olds are usually fascinated by books/stories. 
*Art projects are also fun - painting, coloring, glueing, etc.
*"Horton Hears a Who" movie might be a possibility if you think she would sit for long?
*MOA - there's apparently a kiosk in the park where you can get her picture taken, choose a background (characters), and then have it made into a puzzle for $20.  I'ver heard about it from a co-worker with a 3 yr old, but need to check it out yet.  Underwater World, etc.

Maple Maze at the community Center in Maple Grove is fun for this area of town.

Adventure Park in Ham Lake is lots of fun. I bring my daughter and nephew once a week and we spend about 3hrs there.
