It was a Sunday and not knowing what to do on a sunny weekend, me and my wife decided to go to Pusat Sains Negara as there is a Dinasour exhibition going on there now. FYI, the exhibition will be running until 31st May 2011. Your kids might enjoy it.
We were not very familiar with the road to the place, just decided to hit the pedals and tried to find the way using the sign boards. Unfortunately, the number of signboards available to get us there is so less. I saw one sign board telling us to turn left, once I did, there is a traffic light and we didn't know where to turn since there was no sign board at all. After a turning here and there, finally decided to stop and ask at a food stall nearby. The funny part is, the local fellow there doesn't know the place and told me to ask the Bangladesh fellow working there. And to my suprise, that fellow actually knew the way to get there. At last, we made it to the place and had to round the place to find a parking as all parking are fully taken. The worse part is there are not many parking available there.
I paid RM20 (RM10 each. free for kids under 4 years old), and the journey to a few millions years back begins. Too bad there was not may dinosaurs exhibited there. On the ground floor, you will be able to see two huge Tyrannosaurus and Brontosaurus. Both of it can move their head and tails. T-Rex is more famous among the visitors as it can open it mouth wide and make a scary sound. :P Check out the video below.
Once you go to the second floor, it has been separated into two different section, Herbivorous and Carnivorous dinosaur. On the right is the Herbivorous dinosaurs. There's around 15 different types of it with most of them can make some sort of movements and sounds. Me and my wife enjoyed it but it was exactly the opposite for my 2 years old son. The sound made him scared. Hahaha.. He kept on shouting and said "Babai..babai...", signalling us to get the hell out of that place.
After enough picture taken, we moved on to the Carnivourous dinosaur section. Here, most of the dinosaur was Velociraptor and T-rex. Only a few was of different type. Somewhere in between of the dinosaur screaming, you can also hear my son screaming again...Only towards the end he became bold enough to face the dinasours. And that was because, there was another kid (her mother besides him) crying and came to sit beside my wife. So, my son took the responsibility and showed the kid to be brave and he was running towards the dinasour and back to the kid. He even made some scary sound to scare that kid..hehehe...That kids mother told his son, "Tengok, adik tu berani". I was laughing when I heard that..
Well, that about it about dinosaurs..
Anyway, at the entrance of Pusat Sains Negara, there's something like mini-Aquaria. It was very nice to see those big fishes swimming on top of you. And of course, since it's Pusat Sains Negara, there is quite a lot of scientific activities available there. Quite similar to the one available in Petrosains, KLCC but at a smaller scale.
