Science North


Hey Everyone!

I was also given the chance to visit Science North this past Friday. Science North brings back so many childhood memories. When I was younger I used to go once a month (if not more) with my family and friends. It is great to see how much they have added on to it. There are so many more things to see and do.
I was able to go view both the IMAXs they have going on right now: Sea Monsters 3D and Grand Canyon Adventure. Sea Monsters 3D was amazing! It feels as though you are right there with the sea creatures, so close you can touch them. Some swim so close to you, you feel as though they are going to swim right into you. Sea Monsters allows you to take a look back at what marine reptiles and what they looked like during the time of the dinosaur age. Grand Canyon Adventure deals with how the Grand Canyon River is at risk. It takes you back showing you how the river used to be, compared to what it is now. This movie takes you through a thrilling river-rafting adventure while telling a great story about the Grand Canyon.
After viewing the IMAXs I went on a little tour of Science North. There were so many amazing things to see and do! I checked out the butterfly exhibit. It is amazing to watch all the butterflies fly around you. I went around and looked at all the amazing creatures Science North has, including Quillan, the porcupine.
I also took a look at a newer exhibition called Club Genome. Club Genome teaches you how cells communicate and how DNA works. They teach you this by relating it to music. This is a fun and educational exhibit suited for people of all ages.
Going to Science North brought back so many childhood memories. I hope I get the chance to visit Science North again soon because it truly is a fun place to be.
