Natural History Museum London
The Natural History Museum in London is home to over 70 million life and earth science specimens that fit under five collections: botany, entomology, mineralogy, paleontology and zoology. Some of the specimens at the museum were collected by Charles Darwin himself, so it’s a great place to visit if you want to learn more about the natural sciences. There are several workshop areas for children at the museum too; kids can learn how to build bird feeders, make their own mushroom ink, catch creepy crawlies and even go fossil hunting. Entry to the museum is free of charge (although some exhibitions may charge for entry) and offers much for visitors of all ages to learn from and enjoy.
