We started on the natural history side of things, and we saw bones.
Columbian Mammoth. The tusks got so big they overlapped!
Columbian Mammoth teeth. Definitely used for eating plants.
Connor is so tiny next to the humpback whale skull.
There were no dinosaurs in Texas. Mostly because Texas was covered by a shallow sea during the Cretaceous Period. So there were prehistoric aquatic reptiles, like this pliosaur and sea turtle.
There was also a full-scale replica of some of the bones from the Waco Mammoth Site.
After seeing all the natural history exhibits, we went over to the children's museum side of the complex.
I can hear the ocean!
Connor tried out every. single. typewriter.
Look at how tall I am!
Help! We're stuck in a giant kaleidoscope!
Working hard in a pioneer kitchen.
Chinese Dragon. This was my favorite. It's so pretty!
And so ended another great homeschool field trip.
