History of Biological Evolution —— Entering beijing museum of natural history

"Shocking, magical, broad and enlightening" is the key word given in beijing museum of natural history's promotional film. "The 26-meter-long giant Mamenxilong fossil", "the only dinosaur mummy fossil in China" and "the whole nest dinosaur egg" are really attractive. In addition, children have been obsessed with the book Magic School Bus recently, and one of them, Looking for Dinosaurs, has aroused our enthusiasm for visiting.

Walking into the museum, you will find it is like a vivid natural history. The exhibition of the whole museum focuses on the evolution of living things. In the exhibition halls of ancient mammals, ancient reptiles and invertebrates, we saw the origin and early evolution of living things. Through the traces of various fossils, it seems to lead us through time and space and see those extinct creatures. The exhibitions in each museum are very rich and detailed. For example, the Mammalian Museum introduces in detail the evolution of long nose, strange hoof, cloven hoof, carnivore, primate and angiosperm. Those well-made exhibition boards are full of professional introductions, which are as instructive as textbooks.

But for 6-year-old children, sensory stimulation is the most exciting place for them. Faced with so many huge bone fossils, they are not only amazed, but also excited to run around. Especially after seeing the dinosaur fossils I was thinking about, I was even more excited. In that lifelike dinosaur park, the recovered dinosaurs not only shook their heads and wagged their tails, roared and hissed, but also blinked and gasped, which was simply lifelike.

This natural museum has 10 basic exhibition halls, which can be found in official website. When I went there, I caught up with the Plant World and the Discovery Corner, but the other eight exhibition halls were all around, and children in almost every museum could find places that excited her.

Animals-There are hundreds of precious animal specimens with different shapes and beautiful postures in the exhibition hall of human friends. The children found porcupines, spiny porpoises and giant polar bears, giant pandas and Siberian tigers they had seen in the book. It is particularly worth mentioning that these precious animal specimens are made at a high level, with shiny fur and perfect posture, which reproduces the posture and appearance that animals should have before their death. In the exhibition hall of "Magic Africa", the children found an ostrich chasing several monkeys. It turned out that the monkey stole its ostrich eggs. In the "Origin of Man" museum, the children said curiously that man is a special kind of animal. I guess she hasn't figured out how men come. In the "Into the Human Body" exhibition hall, the children watched the growth process of the fetus from one month to nine months in detail.

In a word, the Beijing Museum of Natural History shows us a panoramic view of the occurrence and development of life, including the origin and evolution of ancient creatures, the magical beauty of animals and the magnificent history of human origin. This also verifies the theme keywords of those eight words in the promotional film. This museum is not only of popular science significance to children, but also beneficial to everyone. Such a place is suitable for seeing more, and there should be different gains every time.

Although we have made some preparations for this visit, the contents collected are all-encompassing. In addition, children are younger and have limited cognitive range. The overall tour is still a bit cursory, and many important exhibits have been skipped in a hurry, such as the world's first flower, Liaoning Guguo, and those two exhibition halls that are not open. I hope that in the future, when the children are older, they can make their own strategies, make their own lists, and look at everything they want to know.
