Hi guys,

I just had the BEST Tuesday ever! On Tuesday my grade took a field trip to The Museum of Life and Science. It was amazing. Alright, now I’m going to walk you through the day! First we boarded the bus and drove to the museum. After that we finally got to explore the museum. We went outside to the GIGANTIC tree house. At first we all played a game of tag but it was lightly raining so all the ropes were very slippery. That just made it ten times more fun! I also climbed the gigantic stumps and managed to not get a splinter! After that we got to see the coolest presentation where they told us about three different animals. They even let us touch them! The animals we got to see were a bearded dragon, a ball python snake, and a ferret. The ferret only smelled a little bad. One of the animals even started eating the lady who was telling us about the animal’s necklace. They were so cute! Now I am inspired, and I want to get a bearded dragon for my birthday. But my parents aren’t so sure… After that we went to lunch where my dad kindly packed me a delicious sugar cookie with green frosting and rainbow star sprinkles. After that we went inside and did a ton of cool stuff but my favorite part was making paper airplanes and doing origami. I made a cup and my friend taught me two different ways to make a butterfly. Sadly, the screen that was supposed to teach you how to do it was broken 😢. Coming in a close second, they had these tubes that would shoot up whatever you put in them! I did these little guys with parachutes on them. It was awesome! After that we went to go look at the animals. We saw some turtles, and unfortunately we did not get to see the bears. We got to see the head of a wolf, but it was so good at blending in that my friends had to point it out to me. It was sleeping so peacefully on the edge of a cliff! A fun fact is that the day we saw the wolf it was actually their birthday! Happy birthday to them, happy birthday to them, happy birthday dear wolf on the edge of the cliiiiiiffff, happy birthday to theeeemmmm! Wooo Hooo! And finally after that we saw the best animal there… lemurs! When we were watching them it was like watching a soap opera! They made awesome jumps, leaps, and climbs. They were even grooming each other. One thing I love about lemurs is that in their colonies a female is the leader! When we were watching them all the boys were in a huddle grooming each other or something, and then the leader (Kesandra) climbed up to them and started hitting them with her tail! She was absolutely annihilating them! It was CRAZY!!! I loved it. There was jealousy, people being left behind, couples, groups, hitting, and even kissing. As I said before it was like a soap opera! If you want to see a picture of the stars (A.K.A. the lemers) then scroll up to see a photo of them. After that we went to an outdoor exhibit called Earth Moves. It was great, there was a cave, rock stacking, and even waterfalls you could control. I made a gigantic rock tower. We also played tag which was really fun to do in the cave and on the stepping stones on the water. I tried to hide with my other friends by sitting on the rocks up high but I got caught. We also tried to go to the seed exhibit but it was closed due to wet weather, which was totally unfair because it was not even raining anymore. And finally as the last thing we did (which was probably my favorite) we went to the exhibit named Into The Mist. It was awesome. There were two areas, one was small with flat ground and had mist and the other was huge and had a bunch of hills, and lots of mist. You had to press buttons to get the mist to keep coming. We pressed the button a bunch of times and it was spectacular. We played tag and jumped through the mountains of misty grass. It was so hard to see but that is part of what made it so fun. We played tag where there were no tag backs for only ten seconds so it was fair. No tag backs means that if you tag someone they can’t tag you back, but the way we played that was only true for the first ten seconds after you’re tagged. It was also very slippery and we got pretty wet. IT WAS AMAZING ! I saw one kid who got completely soaked from going under the water fountains in Earth Moves! After that we trudged back to the bus sadly, because the awesome field trip was over.

Going to The Museum of Life and Science was a great experience and I would definitely recommend it to you all. I give it five stars out of five stars (⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️) As I said before my favortie part of the museum was Into The Mist, what was yours? You can tell me in the comment section. If you’ve never been to The Museum of Life and Science then tell me about another awesome museum you have been to in the comment section. I’d love to hear! One other question I have for you is what your favorite animal is? Mine is a red panda, but lemurs are in a close second! Once again you can leave in the comment section your answer. The thing is all these amazing creatures need to be protected by us. With global warming and deforestation all the little (and big) cute animals are losing their homes and going extinct. They need you, even if all you do is a little something it still helps. Even just supporting laws that stop deforestation is enough. In another post I will make sure to list some resources for other things you can do to help. Get excited!

The Museum of Life and Science is a really fun way to learn about life and science. HA! Get it? The Museum of Life and Science, and I learn about life and science there. Leave in the comment section whether you think my jokes are cheesy or funny. Once the votes are in I will create a post for you guys showing which side wins. Stay tuned and don’t forget to vote!

Thanks for reading , byyyyyyyye!
