Going to the Melbourne Museum

On Thursday the 31 of December me and my mum went to the Museum.  FIRST of all of all we went to a room and it had lots and lost  of Dinosaur skeletons.  With each and every skeleton there was a little screen that told a story about the Dinosaur , and it showed you what it would look like if it were alive today.  For example I was surprised that one one of the Dinosaurs actually had feathers on it's body.  And I leant that Birds such as a Magpie were related to Dinosaurs.  In the same room, there was a skeleton of a lizard that once lived in Australia, and it is bigger than the Komodo Dragon!
We also saw lots of animals that have died and were stuffed and it told you if the animals were endangered, extinct or surviving.  There were lots of different animals, some I have never seen before.  I liked the pygmy possum the most.  We also saw a mind exhibition (as in your head) and I thought it was very interesting.  One of the things I liked was where they showed you pictures of the common dreams that people often get like teeth falling out and someone flying.

In the kids museum, I weighed myself and I weighed as much as a grey kangaroo.  Mummy weighed as much as a freshwater crocodile.  Near the cafe there's an old fashioned tram and it's really cute.

The best part about the day was when we went to the mind exhibition.

I give the Melbourne Museum 10 out of 10!
