St. Paul: Investigate Fossils at Bell Museum Oct. 13
National Fossil Day is coming up on October 13, and the Bell Museum is the perfect place to satisfy your curiosity about natural history. Exploring fossils is a great way to connect with the distant past, see what creatures were like millions of years ago, and inspire kids to learn more about science. The Bell Museum features exhibits on everything from ancient animals to space travel and has been in operation for nearly 150 years. The mix of education, science, art, and fun makes it an ideal place to visit for National Fossil Day this year in St. Paul.
- Bell Museum – 2088 Larpenteur Ave. W., St. Paul, MN 55113
Established in 1872, the Bell Museum is the official natural history museum of Minnesota, and the University of Minnesota oversees it. The museum's mission is to inspire curiosity in all who visit, through hands-on experiences, education from a knowledgeable staff, and a vast collection of fascinating exhibits. It's a place where fun meets with learning, and it's all located around the corner from St. Paul homes for sale. - Discover Fossils and Much More in the Touch & See Lab
The Touch & See Lab at the Bell Museum is where younger visitors can get hands-on with science by exploring fossils, plant specimens, and even living creatures. This is one of the most popular exhibits in the museum, and being able to touch these amazing fossils is a highlight of any visit. The Touch & See Lab recently celebrated 50 years of helping kids (and adults!) get hands-on with science. It was one of the first exhibits in any natural history museum to allow visitors to touch the animals, fossils, and plants, helping to set a trend that's now popular in museums worldwide. - Nature Dioramas Bring the Past to Life
The large, lifelike Nature Dioramas are one of the museum's unique features, bringing the past to life by recreating scenes from throughout our planet's history. Scenes depicted by the dioramas depict habitats from all around Minnesota at different points in the state's history. They mix realistic models of animals and habitats with beautifully painted murals as backdrops to complete the scene. - See a Show at the Planetarium
There's always something new to see at the Bell Museum Planetarium, which has shows running all day when the museum is open. Popular shows include Out of This World, Far Out, Big Astronomy, and Minnesota Night Skies. Each show brings different aspects of the night sky to life and educates viewers on key concepts of astronomy. - Activities for Kids of All Ages
The Bell Museum offers tailored activities for kids of all ages, with different activities available for grades K-2, 3-4, 5-6, and 7-8. Younger kids will love the space activities and eco-exploration program, while older kids are sure to enjoy the Astronomy: Engineering class, Exoplanet Exploration, and the Bring on Biodiversity program. - Art and Science Meet at the Bell Museum
It's not all science at the Bell Museum, thanks to resident artists who help bring nature and astronomy to life with unique, creative works of art. All of the artists at the museum live and work in Minnesota, creating art that showcases the natural beauty of our state. There are four new resident artists chosen every year.
