    Eureka!

    Posted by Hettie Bennicke 8 February 2007

    My favourite place is Eureka. I chose it because it’s all about science and I like science. The best thing about Eureka is it has loads of fun activities you can do. It is in Halifax near Hebden Bridge. For once, this place was crowded. It took a quarter of an hour to get inside. I saw a big statue sink into the bath. It made a huge splash and luckily the water went down a couple of pipes.

    I went to see clouds that you can move. There were rain clouds and clouds we have today. After that we went to Me and My Body. A robot talks about what has happened to himself. We saw a mouth and we put beanbags into it and saw how we chew, bite and swallow food.

    Then we saw a rat mask that you put on top of your head to make you look like a giant rat. We made our way into a place where you could feel your very own hairs in your nose! I felt the hairs and afterwards we saw a skull and I pulled a funny face. Then we went to the bike and you pedal on it to see what your skeleton looks like in the mirror. Finally we saw a big mouth and it had a wobbly tooth. Now that is what I call science!
