Museum of Nature and Science.


The special event of the day was presented by Ringling Bros and Barnum and Bailey Circus clowns. "Science of the Circus" was brought to life by four clowns demonstrating balance, gravity and the physics of motion: things at rest tend to stay at rest, things that are moving tend to continue moving, and for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. These scientific principles were demonstrated with laughs and jokes, balancing and juggling, spinning plates and riding a unicycle. The kids clapped and laughed and joined in the fun while witnessing the Science of the Circus.

One of our very own beans helped to demonstrate the principle of balance.
AAAAAhhh! And we thought Polar Bears were cute and cuddly!

Just knowing these Beans are on the job makes the world a safer place.

Our first stop on our tour of the museum was at the Planet Earth exhibit.

This is what makes our world go around...fun times with our friends while experiencing hands-on learning! The Museum of Nature and Science in Fair Park is all about getting your hands on it, in it and around it!

You got better clown pictures then I did. We really had a fun day. I am suspicious that you might be returning at some point in the next 12 months with scores of random children....
