Our group decided to only take one field trip this fall and
we wanted it to be a good one. So, it was decided to go check out the King Tut
Exhibit at the Pacific Science Center.
Homeschool families can go in on the school rate as long
as there are 10 students and there always needs to be more students than
parents. If you booked your trip before
August 31, it was only $8.50 per person.
Now the price is up to $10.50 per person. BUT WHAT A GREAT DEAL! Considering an adult ticket is about
$32. Your group would all need to enter
the exhibit at the same time but then you are free to go throughout the Science
Center at your own pace.
The exhibit took about 75 minutes for our family to go
through. To be honest, my 5 year old was
bored but my 9 and 11 year olds were fascinated! They were always asking if the artifacts were
real, because it is really hard to grasp that they were made by Egyptians about
3,000 years ago. We had studied some of
their beliefs beforehand and it saddened us to see how much time and effort
they placed in their false gods and the afterlife. We saw amazing jewelry and items made from
gold. The exhibit does not only contain
artifacts from King Tut’s burial tomb but also takes you throughout the history
of the Pharaohs.
