We watched the Digital Movie "Earth, Moon & Sun" at the Science Centre Omni Theatre yesterday after we went to Choa Chu Kang for our activity since it was on the way.
We managed to catch the 4pm show and the experience was great! Although it was not the first time I watched a show in the Omni Theatre, but it was the first time we watched it with our precious gal.
As she was fascinated with astronomy recently, I thought that it will be good to expose her more into this area to gain better understanding and could sustain her interest too.
Originally, I wanted to watch another show "One World, One Sky: Big Bird's Adventure" which may be more suitable for her, but it only had one screening at 2pm during weekends and we missed the timing. I felt that this "Earth, Moon & Sun" show is also appropriate for her since it looks relatively kids friendly.
As it was the first time our gal watched a show in Omni Theatre, she was so fascinated that she kept exclaiming "Wow!". Although the show was a short 30-35mins, but she was able to keep her eyes fully focus on the screen for the whole period without fidgeting (unlike her daddy who falls asleep even during the short 30mins....
). When she saw the different planets appearing on the screen, she was pointing excitedly on the planets which she knows. She was also amused by the coyote (The character which appeared in the show which acted as the introductory figure) and when I asked her what she liked about the show, she immediately replied "I like the coyote!"

It was a relatively simple and easy to understand introductory show to astronomy for kids. It showed how the sun, earth and moon works and how they are related to each other. It also explains why a solar eclipse takes place which I felt is just timely for the upcoming solar eclipse. I think the show is educating and entertaining. Although 30mins for a show seems short, but it is perfect for young kids. Watching it in the Omni Theatre with the large screen and 360 degree view gives it a "Wow" experience for kids too. Highly recommended!
