Volcanologist for an afternoon
With the spectacular and destructive eruption continuing, the kids’ interest in volcanoes is at an all-time high. Things are a bit too treacherous on the Big Island, but seize this teachable moment with a trip to the Bishop Museum’s Science Adventure Center. The volcano display has never resonated so loudly or seemed so relevant as it does now!
Good dinosaurs and robotic ones too
Dinosaurs roaring back to Bishop Museum
What kid doesn’t like animatronic dinosaurs? They are scary cool, but not too scary since they are anchored to their spot. The creatures will be back at the Castle Memorial Building at Bishop Museum for a touring exhibit of “Expedition: Dinosaur” Feb. 17 to Sept. 3. https://www.bishopmuseum.org/
