Aina Visits Land Before Time?

The National Science Centre is having a Dinosaurs Alive exhibit till end of May 2011 so if you or your child is a dino-freak, then by all means, do stop by and have a look-see. Admission is RM10 for adults. I don't remember if there's a child's fee, but I do know that Aina's admission was FREE :-D



As we entered the Centre, Aina was immediately awed by the 'fish tank' around her.

But as soon as we stepped into the dino area, Aina's awe turned to fear a bit. She was hesitant to take a step and had to be persuaded....

this one above REALLY scared her, especially when it did this.........

The two dinos greeted guests as they came into the exhibition, and then we moved on to see the other exhibits.

I kind of regretted not bringing my flash; I forgot the built-in one was not working. The whole exhibit at the top floor was shrouded in darkness with minimal lighting!! I had to keep checking my speed setting, and without a tripod, obviously most of it was cr*p!! :-s

It was actually scary for a lot of kids! A boy quite a few years older than Aina was seen crying as he exited the exhibit area.... Poor thing! Aina was considered brave since she only refused to go near the dinos but was ok walking through the exhibit.

I think the sound effects and darkness scares kids.... Even TokMi was complaining that the sounds of snarls and growls were to loud....

After exiting the dino exhibit, we went round and visited the education and activity centre.....

All in all, Aina had good fun so that was important.
