Considering that we celebrate an extended holiday season -- starting from the "ber" months to late January -- you'd think people would have enough time to shop for unique gifts. That's hardly ever the case, though.
Year after year, people rush to stores at the last minute to get the usual mugs, picture frames, toiletries, and what have you. However, getting an ordinary gift doesn't exactly usher in the spirit of the season. Why not wrap something remarkable? If your loved ones are that special, why not give them the stars? Not literally, of course, but something close with the help of The Mind Museum that has lots of great gifts. Add a special twist to your usual holiday flavor with gifts that inspire learning on this season of giving. Take your pick from these awesome offerings:
1. The Scientific Date: How about a date in an artsy but science-themed gallery, or stargazing in cozy couches in a custom-made planetarium? Surprise your loved ones and young ones with All Day Passes or gift certificates to The Mind Museum! With over 250 hands-on, minds-on exhibits and live experiment demonstrations that unveil the remarkable science behind living and non-living things, a date or two there is definitely a unique and exciting way to spend time together this Yuletide season. Get them for only P750.
2. Name the Stars after Your Loved Ones: Did you know that you can literally leave your mark in The Mind Museum by naming one of their virtual exhibits? Leave your names or your loved ones’ on digital exhibits found in the different galleries there, through a fixed donation that comes with e-certificates. Imagine the delight of seeing your family name imprinted on the virtual stars that make up a constellation, or a specific dinosaur that inhabits a virtual era in history. What’s more heart-warming is that proceeds for this program help support the institutions’ project of giving free museum visits to public school kids. Prices range from P1,000 to P5,000, depending on your choice.
3. The Key to Endless Discovery: How does a year-round, all day admission to the first world-class science museum in the country sound? Interactive exhibits, a thoughtfully designed planetarium, meticulously laid-out 3D shows, and exciting science demonstrations await the lucky gift recipient. The Mind Museum’s Unlimited Science Pass is your ticket to free admission to over 300 worldwide science museums, discounts on travelling exhibition tickets, birthday packages, and store purchases. Since the institution's goal is to expand the knowledge of today’s generation, this unli-pass directly supports free museum passes for underprivileged kids. For a group of four or more, passes sell for only P2,250/pax.
4. All for Science, All for Love: To celebrate the holidays in a different, more meaningful way, why not sponsor a trip for public school kids this Christmas? You can even ask family or friends to join you in enriching the sense of wonder of these kids. To inquire about this project, send an email to inquiry@themindmuseum.org.
