Since Sean and I had to leave the zoo earlier than planned, we decided to visit Clark Planetarium which is probably Sean's favorite place. We have been here many times before but there have been some renovations with some new exhibits added. Sean was in heaven! The really great thing about the planetarium is that all of the exhibits are free of charge. There are Earth exhibits about water, wind, volcanoes, and earthquakes; moon exhibits including actual moon rocks, the phases of the moon, and lunar landings; and space exhibits about planets, black holes, and gravity. Sean really likes playing with the tornado simulator, the gravity floor, and the lunar landing video game. He could spend hours and hours here. You can also buy tickets ($7.00) to see 3D movies about the Earth and space in the IMAX theater and star shows in the Dome theater. While Sean and I were there we saw a show in the IMAX theater called "Amazon Adventure" which was absolutely fascinating. Clark Planetarium is not just fun for kids. I like visiting in the evening to see laser shows set to music. You can go here to find out more information about all of the activities and shows at the planetarium.
