Kids and Science

We have been taking our kids to some zoo, some playground, and some pools. Have you thinking to take your kids to science museum? Why not? Are you thinking that they are too young? Have a try!

My family is a member of one of science museum in Australia and it says that we could visit for FREE to 200 others science centre and museum world wide. The kids (I have 5 years old and 20 months old) love to go there.

I think this place not only for family recreation but also as learning place. For example, since I took my son to Scitech, he loves to know more about planets. Once you purchase a ticket to get in to Scitech, you are allowed to have a look all the exhibition inside (which normally changed every 3 months). Inside the scitech ground there were kids playground (for under 6 years old), science show, puppet show, eating area. And you are allowed to get in to the Planetarium which has 3 different show (showing in 3 different times; 45 minutes each).

Some place I knew, they also provide some activities for kids. I think it's good to let your young children to learn about science. Isn't it part of our life too?
