The Bean Museum



What a fun field trip day! We had breakfast before we headed off to the Bean Museum at BYU. Most of us got lost but we eventually found our way. The kids had a great time learning about reptiles and then afterwards got to go on a scavenger hunt to find the different animals in the museum.

This is the lady that talked to us about reptiles. She taught us three things. 1- reptiles have scales 
2-reptiles lay eggs 3-reptiles are cold blooded.





This was a crocodillian. It has eyes on top of it's head to help it hunt for prey.


Learning about scales and touching alligator scales.


                                            A real live tarapin turtle. 




A Gecko that loves to lay in the sand.


                                  Boa Constrictor. His scales felt soft and mushy. 

A large butterfly made out of hundreds of little butterflies.


Large alligator that we found on our scavenger hunt.
