Museum "Living systems": address, exposition, reviews

There are a lot of museums in the world: some keep secrets of long gone times, others tell about plant or animal life, others show masterpieces made by man. As a rule, museum exhibits can not be touched with hands. But there is an exception to the rules. For example, in Moscow a museum has opened, in which not only it is possible, but it is also necessary to touch, try, or play with the exhibits.

Museum "Living Systems"

This is an exposition about a person, his body, his abilities or, in other words, an educational and entertaining project for a family with children.

But to a greater extent, of course, it is designed for children. In the game form, you can find out how the human body works and functions. You can study the physiology of fantastic creatures. And the most interesting thing is that the object of experiments and research is the visitor himself. He "communicates with the exhibits": he jumps, walks on the rope, screams, tries, sniffs and even lies on nails. There are several thematic halls where you can learn everything about your body, having spent for this not one hour. You are waiting for more than 100 exhibits, which are devoted to living human and animal systems. The Museum "Living Systems" on Butyrskaya is unique and unique, in our country there are no similar museums. Want to book an excursion - please. If you want to experience everything yourself, you can too.

Interactive museum, which will tell about human anatomy

Two floors of the museum reveal us the secrets of the work of the human body. There are sections here that relate to the physiology and structure of the human body.

The Museum "Living Systems" teaches and gives an opportunity:

• Observe how the circulatory system works by shaking the pump;
• Try to catch along with phagocytes germs;
• To specify the parameters: growth, force of an exhalation, volume of a liquid in an organism;
• Compare by weight and length of the jump yourself with the animal;
• Learn how the world sees a horse, a shark or a fly;
• To see what signals transmit your vision to the brain;
• Understand how you feel at the height of skyscrapers;
• Run through the tunnel with bats;
• Lie on nails, like a real yogi.

And this is not all the tests and adventures that await you in the "Experimentarium". You can study everything superficially, quickly running on floors, and better - thoughtfully, dedicating this to a couple of hours. Such an opportunity is provided to you by the Living Systems Museum, whose address is 46 Butyrskaya Street.

Five reasons to visit the museum

Natalia Potapova, one of its founders, says that the activity of the educational museum is based on the idea of learning through the game, as well as the integration of visual and auditory perception of the surrounding world with tactile sensations. Any visitor can become an object of the experiment. After all, each of the people is a complex and thoughtful living organism.

And that is why every child and adult has reasons to visit the "Living Systems" museum:

1. Disassemble the person in the organs, and then reassemble. Not everything is so simple in our body, and the children spend a lot of time here, carefully sorting out and collecting their own kind in details.
2. Learn how difficult it is for people with disabilities. To experience the difficulties that these people face every day. You can try to move in a wheelchair, or you can listen to the radio "through a straw." The museum is comfortably equipped, and access to people with disabilities is open.
3. Lie on the nails. And you can try and on the balls, and find out what is more convenient ... Feel like a real yogi. Experience such an extreme love, not only children, but also adults. Nearby there is always a representative of the museum, because the experiment is not the easiest.
4. Unearth the skeleton of a primitive man, who is buried in the sand. It's so exciting, especially when it turns out that it's a mermaid skeleton that has been lying on the bottom of the sea for hundreds of years. Children are amazed to see the mermaid tail instead of legs.
5. Ride your bike, and then turn around and look at yourself in the mirror. You did not ride on a bicycle, but ... your skeleton. This is how our locomotor system works! Kids can be scared, but school-age children are interested in watching their movements.

"Living systems" (a museum of a man in Moscow) really amazes with an abundance of exhibits. And the reasons to visit it, of course, are not five, but much more. Each family will find for themselves the most cognitive department, where they will stay for a long time and will look, study parts of the body or the whole organism.

The most interesting exhibits

Everyone likes something of their own, but of the most memorable:

• Glass cube meter per meter. How many children will be accommodated there? When you get there, then decide. It turns out that it can fit a lot ...
• A huge ice block, created artificially, on which you can leave an imprint of your palm.
• Color corridor, which changes color shades depending on the lighting. Nearby there is a room without light, where you have to go in the dark. And the walls to the touch are different: the sensations are also different.
• The room is a cylinder, where bats are on the walls, and a rocking bridge is under the feet. This is a test of the vestibular apparatus.

And what's next? We need to see for ourselves. The Museum "Living Systems" continues to surprise again and again ...

Mystical beings, how do you live?

The museum has zombies, mermaids, vampires, dragons, gargoyles. All of them can be seen at the stands.

With their help, it's as if you get into a fairy tale and you will learn how this or that creature behaves under unusual conditions. To do this, just press the buttons on the stand. Plus, additional information about strange creatures. Or maybe they still exist? Someone from children is frightened, well and someone and believes that they are real.

And here is another strange creature - motor homunculus, which meets everyone at the entrance. And do not be frightened by its disproportionate size. It shows which parts of the body are given "more space" in the cerebral cortex.

Cognitive programs

In addition, there are scientific and entertainment shows, master classes and educational programs, which gives an opportunity to develop the children who participate in them.

You can see one of the four shows here. How do real tricks look not from the stage, but when you are near? The conjurer will guess the card, pull out a coin from the child's pocket and perform other, at first glance, simple, but such interesting for children tricks. Would you like to attend master classes? They are diverse here, for example, "Get your DNA", "Digest it".

You can get to the class on biology, zoology, ecology. As one of the options - "I want to become a doctor", where they teach to provide medical care. Are you tired? Then go ahead, on the show "Pro-Nutrition", which is also very informative. So the choice is yours. Themes are changing, they can be viewed on the museum's website.

What do the visitors of the museum say?

Every day the museum "Living systems" is waiting and meeting guests, reviews about which are the most positive. The guests of the museum, especially the small ones, are delighted with the exposition. They listen, watch, touch and try. In a playful form, gently and cheerfully study the structure of your own body. Find out what a person is different from animals. Learn fairy-tale creatures.

In the halls there is noise, trampling, surprised exclamations and laughter. And if the child is tired, then you can relax and have a snack in the cafe, which is located on the first floor. Share your impressions, and jog - on the most interesting or unexplored places.

Adults also believe that before visiting the museum the child should be prepared in advance. Tell you how the human body is arranged. This will make him think, and the exhibits will help to comprehend what was said. A trip to the museum gives "food" for thought and adults. They are surprised that the structure of the human body can be shown so correctly, expertly and occasionally fun.
