For our school trip we were due to go to the World Museum in Liverpool. However due to current situation we were unable to go and I didn’t want you missing out.
I can try and provide the next best thing.
Have you watched Night at the Museum?
This film shows you what it is like in a museum and from watching this last week, I thought how wonderful it would be to visit. The location for this film was the American Museum of Natural History in New York… Sorry I can’ take you to New York But I can take you on a virtual tour to ‘ The National History Museum‘ in London.
London’s Natural History Museum plays itself in the Paddington movie.
