Museum Course: "Life in Majesty" at the Beijing Natural History Museum
The Beijing Natural History Museum is China's first large-scale natural history museum, housing up to10ten thousand cultural relics, specimens, and fossils.
With such rich and precious natural history resources, it could have been a scientific temple where both adults and children appreciate the beauty of nature and immerse themselves in the natural world. Yet, all too often, the reality is that peoplevstrike pose after pose for photos, or read the simple text on display panels in a dull manner, completely missing the fascinating stories behind the organisms before their eyes.

[Course Introduction]
The world of dinosaurs that little ones love most — learn how vertebrates evolved from aquatic to terrestrial life. Do the little ones know how long dinosaur specimens can be? Our mystery science experts will tell us all about it.
How did dinosaur moms and babies live?
How do we distinguish between ancient and modern strata?
Touch this bone — scientists will tell us whether it's real or not.
Little ones, do you recognize them all? Don’t worry — our science experts will tell us everything.
And there’s not just him, but her too.
The little ones won’t just visit and listen — they’ll also complete tasks set by the scientists.
But that’s not all — our science experts will work with us to make specimens by hand.
Leaves are fragile, little ones — be careful.
Making a good specimen isn’t an easy task.
The best part? You can bring both the knowledge and your creations home.
