National Medical Museum

Do you want to visit an off-beat museum?  Go to the National Museum of Health and Medicine.  The Walter Reed Medical Museum moved to a new location in Maryland, just outside Washington, D. C.  Here is a bit of history.  I visited the Walter Reed museum twice before it moved.  The museum is free.  Take a look at their Education page.  The high school tour include plasticized organs for students to observe.  I took a high school anatomy class; the organs are excellent.  Younger kiddos can take the Human Body Tour.  The museum has a ton of Civil War medicine, too.  Is it weird?  Extremely.  It’s one of my favorite museums.
