My Review on Rise of the Guardians

Recently, I watched Rise of the Guardians, a nice holiday movie.  Jack Frost is invisible to everyone but the guardians--Santa Claus, the Easter bunny, Sandman, the Tooth Fairy, and the evil Bogeyman, named Pitch. 

Slowly, Pitch takes over the children and make them stop believing in the Guardians by giving them nightmares so HE could be believed in. When only one kid left still believes in the Guardians he teams up with them to defeat the evil Pitch.

This movie is hilarious and adventurous, and it's always making you think. My favorite character is the Easter Bunny, because he seemed humorous.

Overall, my rating out of ten is a 6. Usually, I am the type of person who watches movies over and over again, but I wouldn't recommend watching this more than once.

My Trip to the Science and Industry Museum

I am so sorry, it's been almost 3 weeks since my previous post. A few weeks ago, I visited the Science and Industry Museum in Chicago; it was amazing and a building full of wonders! Of course, you wouldn't be able to explore all of it in an entire day. 

One of the exhibits I visited was the Charlie Brown exhibit. While I was there, I learned about the author, Charles Shulz, and how he came up with the idea. I also learned about his life and read multiple comics too! They were hilarious!

Another exhibit was called the U-505, the only German submarine in the United States from World War II. Did you know that the Germans first invented the submarine to use in World War II? They actually brought the entire submarine in for people to see! It is HUGE!

There were more exhibits, but I wasn't able to see all of them. I hope you go to this fascinating museum! And, before I forget, it might be wise to bring LOTS of snacks along, maybe even your lunch. Many families did that while I was there. Just a hint. ;-)

Charlie Brown! :-)

Place to create lightning!! I might post a video of it later....
