Are you someone who likes insects,space, or dinosaurs? Possibly all 3? If you do, then I know the place for you. It’s fun and educational, and it has something for everyone. It’s the Houston Museum of Natural Science, and I think that we should go here on a field trip, and here’s why.

This museum has a lot of variety. There’s a Butterfly Center that is home to many kinds of plants and insects. The butterflies stay in the Rainforest Conservatory, which is 3 stories high and is home to a 50 foot waterfall! Next, there is a Planetarium where you can learn about space and things from the past, like dinosaurs! Finally, there is a Giant Screen Theatre that plays 3D movies! While looking on the museum’s website, I watched a trailer of a movie titled “Tiny Giants 3D”. It showed a mouse in the desert and a chipmunk in a forest. Both of them were trying to do the same thing: survive. It looked really interesting, and I think we should see it if we go on a field trip here.

Although the things at the Houston Museum of Natural Science are fun, but they’re also educational. Of course the Butterfly Center is fun, because you get to watch butterflies and look at exotic plants and animals, but you learn about them in The Brown Hall of Entomology. There are many different insects to research, like the Whipscorpion, the Atlas Beetle, and many different butterflies. You learn about these insects on touchpads found throughout The Brown Hall of Entomology. Next, in the Planetarium, you can watch movies about space and dinosaurs, and while entertaining, they’re educational too. Now, in the theatre there are movies about animals ,and while entertaining, they also teach you a lot of different things about animals. Also, if we were studying animals in school, we could go to the theatre or the Butterfly Center.

Remember, The Houston Museum of Natural Science has something for everyone. It’s fun and educational. These are just two small reasons why we should go to The Houston Museum of Natural Science.
