Hey all,


Today, we are visiting the Cranbrook Institute of Science in Bloomfield Hills, MI. This campus not only includes this museum but also an art museum and the renowned Cranbrook School, recognized worldwide. The Science Museum features exhibits on Dinosaurs, The Planets, Early Humans, Physics, Geology, and more. The museum can be a bit difficult to navigate if it's your first time here, so if you need assistance, maps are available at the front desk. Our favorite part of the museum was the area with a track and a rolling ball that triggered multiple chain reactions, which was mesmerizing. The rock display was also really impressive. Overall, this is an excellent museum to visit and will entertain both kids and adults of all ages. Now, let's dive into the photo report!
