I guess it is now official, the NIDO Fortified Science Discovery Center is now on our list of the most interesting places to visit with your children. We’ve returned to the place a few weeks back + had a chance to observe stars + planets, an encounter with Lolong + met Ben10 face-to-face. Not only that we’ve also had the chance to brush up on our knowledge about Science + Technology, among others.
The Education Field Trip
The place is not only teeming with eye-popping installations + amazing displays, it s also chockful of educational exhibits that both mums + kiddos alike will learn a lot from. Here are a few of the things we discover:
- We took the journey to track the history + evolution of technology + communication from its thousand-years-ago origin to what it is now + its latest innovations
- We also took this Health + Science tour + were greeted with larger-than-life depictions of various main organs of the body + how they work
Meeting Lolong for the First Time
One of the surprises that awaits the NIDO Center visitors is the humongous life-size replica of the largest crocodile in captivity, Lolong. The meeting with the albeit-stationary replica is quite staggering in itself + I do not know how the experience with the real thing would be like! The little ones even got the chance to have their photos taken with the famous reptile, too!
Our 3D Experience
Our out-of-this-world 3D experience brought us face-to-face with stars, planets + other gaseous entities in outer space, as well as their mysterious origins. The less-than-one-hour show is truly engaging that even the little one was all-eyes + was sitting still on his seat in its entirety.
Meeting Ben10 + other Cartoon Network Characters
The little man watched one too many of Ben 10 episodes that left him enamored to this teen superhero + his alien friends + I guess you can tell that amongst all the parts of this whole experience, the close-up encounter with larger-than-life Ben 10 is actually the one he enjoyed the most! Read more about his experience here. I guess there really is something about these cartoon characters that keeps them interesting: they are colorful, fun to watch + really entertaining to look at! I am a big fan of cartoons, too, when I was younger + now that I am a mum, I get to watch a bunch with my little man, too! It is an activity we actually both enjoy. Cartoons are ageless + timeless, + if you’ll see these characters come to life in support of fun + educational places like the NIDO Fortified Science Discovery Center, then I am all for it! 😉
