Who says museums are boring? Free fun and learning for kids

👶 I took my little one to the newly opened Xinjiang Geological and Mineral Museum today, and it was a treasure trove! My child was immediately captivated by the exhibits and their eyes lit up! ✨ . 🔍 The museum not only has detailed displays of the evolution of life, but also rich mineral resources. It's a great place for learning through play! My child was asking questions while looking at the exhibits, and their interest in learning was through the roof! 📚 . 💎 The various mineral displays were eye-opening for my child. From sparkling gems to minerals of all shapes and sizes, each one was amazing! My child even got to touch some of the minerals, and was so excited! 👐 . 🌍 Through this visit, my child not only learned a lot about geology, but also developed a strong interest in the wonders of nature. It's a great place to take kids to learn! 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 📍 Address: Xinjiang Geological and Mineral Museum (No. 1001 Wansheng Street, Urumqi Economic and Technological Development Zone) 🕒 Opening hours: 10:00–17:00 daily 🎫 Tickets: Free (currently in trial operation, no reservation required, but remember to book in advance in the future!)
