5. The Burke Museum

Okay, this one isn’t technically a virtual tour, but it’s still totally cool and perfect for dino-loving kids. Keep it local and have your crew explore the interactive offerings from The Burke Museum. We recommend the Curriculum Packets, which feature different themes with facts, crafts and more.

What to learn:

  • What is the difference between baleen and toothed whales? Hint: Find your answer in the Whale curriculum packet.
  • Name a neighborhood plant that can be traced back to the Mesozoic Era. Hint: Find your answer in the I Dig Dinos curriculum packet.
  • How long is a Plesiosaurus? Hint: Find your answer in the Mesozoic Monsters curriculum packet.
