The Museum says; "The Robot Zoo reveals the magic of nature as a master engineer. Eight robot animals and more than a dozen hands-on activities illustrate fascinating real-life characteristics, such as how a chameleon changes colors, a giant squid propels itself and a fly walks on the ceiling.

I say, if you have the opportunity to visit a local museum which is hosting the Robot Zoo exhibit, do not miss it! Go! Take your grandchildren! Not only will you have a wonderful time together, but you will learn so much about the amazing creatures God created!
In addition to the wonderful Robot Zoo the museum also had an exhibit from National Geographic called Earth Explorers, which takes people "around the world" to experience different habitats and the creatures who lived there. My grandsons loved "Soaring" across the Savanna by "riding" in the "hot-air balloon" and being able to "look down" at so many different places.
The Museum says; "Organized around Earth’s spectacular eco-zones Earth Explorers brings the unparalleled adventures of National Geographic to life. Learn about the daring men and women who venture into dangerous and remote parts of the world to discover new places, help protect our planet’s biodiversity and unearth new scientific discoveries.

Earth Explorers allows visitors to let their imaginations run wild as they become explorers and embark on an adventure to discover new species, study animal behavior and learn about the important roles technology, innovation and ingenuity play in making and documenting these discoveries."
When you think about the museum, you may think of exhibits behind glass which are meant to be looked at, but not touched. Robot Zoo and Earth Explorers changes all of this by providing opportunities to touch and explore, hands-on, to learn in a truly engaging way children - and families will not forget!
So, if you live in West Michigan - or nearby, especially if you do not have an actual vacation planned this summer, go visit the Grand Rapids Public Museum and plan to spend the day "visiting" the Savanna, the depths of the ocean, the tops of the Himalayas, the Rain Forrest and polar zones. Then take a close-up view of animals in the Robot Zoo . . . you will love it all and so will your family! (Plus enjoy all the other exhibits in the museum, too!)
And, if you do not live in, or have a visit planned to West Michigan, check out your own public museum - watch for these exhibits to be on display - you will not want to miss them! (The museum provided free tickets for my family, so I could write a review and share it with you.)
