Harvard Museum of Natural History Best of IgoUgo

Attraction

Quote:
This is a great place to take children, though certainly not limited to their enjoyment, as it has wonderful exhibits of various dinosaurs, including one of a dinosaur that was over 30 feet long. There were a number of hands-on exhibits. It also has a large number of real-life small animals and birds that have been preserved and mounted. For those with an appreciation of the delicate art of working with glass, there is a collection of glass flowers and vegetation that is very lifelike, and there are thousands of items to view close up. This place is free on Sunday mornings and a fun place for all ages.
