World museums
Last year, I visited some amazing museums. I love learning about the past, and in these museums I learned a lot of different things.
► The Jordan Museum
I wentto Amman, Jordan, and I visited the Jordan Museum. It's a museum where you can see ancient objects from Jordan's past. I saw some very famous statues there. They are some of the oldest statues ever made: they're around 9,000 years old! They were amazing.
► Shanghai Museum of Science and Technology
I like science and technology, so I love this museum in Shanghai, in China. You can explore technology from today, and also learn about Chinese inventions from hundreds of years ago. There are lots of activities for children. I did a science workshop and learned all about robot design. I also watched a film about space exploration. It was fantastic!
► Natural History Museum
I visited this museum in London, England, on holiday. Here I saw a T-Rex and a blue whale, and I learned about plants and volcanoes! Do you know what an earthquake is? It's when the earth shakes! Atthe Natural History Museum, Iwent into a room and the floor started shaking like an earthquake! It was so exciting!
