Yesterday there was Leshy Day.
We were going slowly, and spent time there very sincerely, without any excitement. There was no goal to see everything and go everywhere this time. The child wanted to attend a master class - and attended the master class. We wanted to finish watching what we missed in the last visit in the interactive center - and we watched it calmly and in detail.
We arrived at the museum at ten minutes to two, at two o'clock a film was projected on the walls (although, alas, I forgot my stereo glasses, so I could not check whether the film was three-dimensional).
After that we went to the museum.

Master class "Owl".

Misha sewed, sewed, tried, and everything worked out!

He played with this charming owl all the way afterwards, and went to sleep with her. The owl was named Plyushka because it is. And she is a splyushka because we found a special box in the museum with the voices of various animals, mostly birds. And finally, the four-year-old mystery has been solved, what kind of infection keeps us up at night in Bulgaria!

scream recording
Only in the quiet Bulgarian night, she screams many times louder.

And downstairs at this time someone was dancing with fans.

Several games were held on the second floor in the halls of the museum. We played everything.
There were very few people there, so we played one on one with the animators.
Only the third game turned out to be a group game, two more children and two mothers took part, but it was even more fun that way.

In the second game, "Bear Truth", each piece of the puzzle is written true on one side and false on the other. For example, that cubs are born with a weight of 600 grams or 10-15 kilograms, or whether a bear sleeps in true hibernation in winter, and about a bear family, and why he sucks his paw (“A bear does not suck a paw, but only licks it when it starts on the pads peel off and itch badly old skin"), and many, many more facts. Over there in the photo you can read: "For the winter, the bear stores more than 150 kg of subcutaneous fat," and on the other side it is stated that 10 kg.
Lay out the puzzle with the true side up. Something I myself didn’t know either, and Mishka even less.
20 pieces had to be laid out, 20 statements had to be sorted out. Very educational.

In the third game, "About whom the fairy tale affects," the prejudices of the ancient Slavs were correlated with animal cards. For example, an animal whose true name cannot be called, but in European languages ​​\u200b\u200bit is preserved, and in Russian only a nickname (bear, of course \u003d ber, the word lair remains from this word); whom the sorcerers gave to eat to a person so that he would become wise (no one guessed that it was a dog: the expression "he ate a dog on this"), etc. Here we guessed everything except the dog, but it was also interesting.

And there was also the game "Mushroom Basket". It was necessary to put only edible mushrooms in the basket, discarding the poisonous ones. The mushrooms were dummies made by the museum's artists exactly like the originals. Here Misha really surprised me. He stated that he had just recently read about mushrooms, and completed the task almost without error. True, he prudently did not take a few edible mushrooms, for example, champignon. But I didn’t recognize him at all either, because we buy champignons in the store, and there they are with spherical hats, and the dummy was with the hat completely open and completely resembled a toadstool. Considering that the child went mushroom picking only once in his life, and then for a short time, then, I think, he is a great fellow!

Then we walked around the exposition, had lunch and went to our favorite interactive center.

Table about animals:

This time I opened the tables.


I did not even expect that the skulls are so small in size.

Table about plants:

There were mosses in his secret drawers

and lichens


Beautiful ones, right?

I don’t know what Mishka was doing, I walked alone and systematically gained knowledge that I didn’t grab last time.
I looked very carefully at all the sliding showcases about trees, for example.
I did not know that elm fruits perform the function of photosynthesis even before the appearance of leaves. Yes, I didn’t know a lot of things :) All this is very interesting.

Once again, now completely, with a comparison of all the animals, I played augmented reality.


The fox eats a bunny and a mouse.
The eagle eats the hare and the fox, bitch

A weasel, of course, a mouse




Runs very fast, even smeared in the picture.
And the mouse eats the colza, just like the bunny.

There were almost no children in the hall, so we managed to calmly determine the tracks, play with leaves, etc.

In general, we had a great time until the closing of the museum.

**************************************** ****
Then we went to have dinner at Pasta-&-Burgers on Akademicheskaya.
Bloggers from the Mosblog went there, advertised, and so we decided to go in, albeit at our own expense.
A tiny hall, quite a pleasant interior, polite and friendly young guys - cooks, a complete absence of visitors.


Misha got a burger, very large in size, the child ate only half, said it was delicious. I took the pasta, to be honest, not bad, but not so hot either. We ate better :)


Upon leaving the cafe, the loss of Misha's glove was discovered, so we had to walk back towards the museum; fortunately, she was found halfway down the road, lying quietly and peacefully in the middle of the wide sidewalk. So our trip was a complete success.
