Connor and Alistair have gotten so big! Also, I love the skull exhibits! Sadly, I don't get to see mountains in Florida.

You were right. DNA is a type of nucleic acid. Another type is RNA. The name of DNA is deoxyribonucleic acid.

Autistic minds are literal, inquisitive, creative, and in constant motion. You are correct to not establish a bias. Let young minds learn and discover. We (Autistics) have an innate ability to sort things out. Every “fact” simply becomes another question. In observing and learning about the World around us, is it really necessary to cloud and over complicate all the wonderful experiences available to us? Just as there is a time to investigate “Philosophies’”, there are many more times just to be in awe of the World around us.

Your kids are so lucky to have great parents like you😃 Have a good day

[@Java-D]

That’s a great museum. It looks like y’all had fun! My son likes museums too but struggles with the noises and other people being around. He rushes through very quickly but still takes in a lot of information!

[@sandothemando8924]

Thanks for the Australia shout out! Yes we do have to deal with spiders and snakes every now and then but not that much if you live in a city like me. Love your channel btw :)

[@MichaelOliver-ry7fj]

Wonderful to See The Family and would imagine that such a region as Utah may well possess a plethora of gathered natural treasures.This presentation looks like best of the best. Britney is stunning, Rob in his-element.

[@fenderstrat22]

no way! i’ve been to this museum, so it was really cool to see my favorite youtubers go to it! glad you had fun!

[@littlejonathorn6860]

Love it!! Great video

[@insertwhistlememe]

I just have to say how amazing you guys are, as parents. Your so pure. I love your channel

[@user-eg8ht4im6x]

What an amazing place, I’d love to go there, so many things to look at, and lovely to see everyone enjoying all the different things and learning together.

[@GoldenAngel-]

I love North she to real and honest😂

[@jennyulvestad9449]

It's so heartwarming to see everyone enjoying the museum. It is a really cool facility and great for people of all ages. I hope you're all having a wonderful December so far!

[@elevdsm]

So glad they enjoyed it. We have a local museum called the Science Center of Iowa with a bunch of hands on exhibits. My favorite part is the western wing on the second floor where there is a giant ball wall! Great video as always, keep it up

[@flamingolady5047]

So happy to see you all having such a wonderful time. ❤

[@thomasschoeck9080]

I remember first reading about DNA in high school biology sophomore year back in the 1990s. It looks like maybe they’re starting to introduce it earlier now, but probably not in much detail in the middle school years.

[@flamingolady5047]

Love Connor’s enthusiasm ❤

[@zakadams762]

I think you have a wise outlook on religion and science. I totally agree

[@hqgirl567]

I love museums, they r so fun

[@user-yd1mz4on1k]

Ian is very knowledgeable. He’s like a book of knowledge! Very cool

[@DBK415]

I find History and Prehistory to be fascinating.

[@benwintfeld2983]

I been to museums in the past. There are museums I know of in New Jersey actually. I think it’s a good opportunity for your autistic son to fly JetBlue and they will enjoy experiencing when they go. Come see me in New Jersey someday.

[@Hugh-S]

You guys would absolutely love the Transport Museum here in Glasgow, Ian especially I think lol.

[@echofoxtrot2.051]

I've never been to Utah but really want to visit someday. I love rockhounding and paleontology. Utah is prime territory for both interests. If you see a weirdo wearing a beanie in 90 degree weather, that's probably me. Lol

[@zakadams762]

The morning skull is too funny

[@RoxieBrethour]

Happy Holidays

[@darkchipz3016]

I love museum, also they seems to be very happy

[@zakadams762]

I occasionally adopt wolf spiders since they don't bother me, and they hunt prey inside. I usually take them to a window so they can find the flies trying to escape 😂 sometimes they get big but usually they can't find enough food and die 😢

[@zakadams762]

I have a fox in my yard that likes bees and wasp larvae. If I dig around the bee nest usually the fox comes at night to eat them all. I could just kill the bees but I like the fox

[@AutismFamilyChannel]

Wow that’s something

[@user-yd1mz4on1k]

Aww, I hope Connor feels better soon! I’m sorry he isn’t feeling well.

[@aitnez]

Hi, there! In Brazil we use a autism lanyard for identification (the sunflower one or the puzzle one) when we go to places like this. Isn't that commum in the USA? Here it can give you accessibility and priority

[@NickyJohnK219]

[@AutismFamilyChannel]

We sure did!

Hi I am OCD I am here to thank your kids that you took them to Utah natural history museum

Better thanks

I New ere and just whant to said your second soon,Connor have a great sens of humour and : i gave this place "5 Star"too

[@andrewlien3579]

Dinosaurs were closely related to birds. The two-legged dinosaurs are called theropods. Birds are theropods.

[@AutismFamilyChannel]

There’s a lot of relations and similarities in the animal kingdom across the times. I often wonder if evolutionary theory draws the wrong lines or connections in ancestry based on similar characteristics that actually were divergent but happened in tandem with one another. I question a lot about the fossil record because our world has always been so dynamic and eroded so quickly in some parts. Just thinking out loud 😉

[@carolet747]

hi from australia

[@b0lt658]

Great video! How tall is Ian? He looks so big now!

[@user-yd1mz4on1k]

Your kids are smart!! Conner used a word so big that I actually had to look up and I’m 35 years old 😂

[@derekaldrich4887]

I like Ian and Connor shirt I comment on your other video playing hungry hippo game

I seen the science museum on a different KZbin channel I subscribe to they live in Utah too

[@nathanjw940]

Really cool I heard Connor say he wasn't feeling good I have the same senory issues I feel nauseous. Is Connor a sensory avoider I can tell allister is a seaker

[@AutismFamilyChannel]

Yes and yes 👍

[@nathanjw940]

@@AutismFamilyChannel that sick feeling is awful Connor I can relate. I was enjoying my school's big win and instead of enjoying it with friends I could have gone to the ER because I didn't understand sensory overload. Connor in so many ways reminds me of myself I started joining this channel because the video autism in plain sight was the best description of myself because severe is how autism is described.

[@christinephillips3435]

Your boys so lovely

[@shem217]

I think that small space where Alistair crawled through would be a lot more fun if it passes all over the museum, through the walls, and between the floors and ceilings. Kids like Alistair might get lost in there but I’m sure they would find their way out eventually. They would be by themselves for quite a while. So they better behave well in there!

[@AutismFamilyChannel]

It’d be super fun…and very difficult for parents to get their kids out 😂

[@shem217]

@@AutismFamilyChannel Yeah because parents wouldn’t fit in there!

[@Cartierscott]

There all so tall now holy 😂

[@dfreshness2006]

Religion starts with certainty, discourages free thought or contrary points of view, and is based on the interpretation of a story. An interpretation that is preached from a few individuals at the top of a power hierarchy. Science starts with uncertainty and keeps refining itself through testing, experimentation, and observation until a hypothesis can be formed about the world and new technologies can be created using these discovered principles.

[@AutismFamilyChannel]

Sounds like a strong bias. The scientific field can be just as dogmatic as many religions, and even pious. Just have to be honest on both sides of the discussion and weigh things on a case by case basis.

[@dfreshness2006]

​@@AutismFamilyChannel One side tests and refines continuously. One side is evidence based and one side is not. There can be charlatans on both sides, but only one side can prove someone a charlatan.

I have been watching your videos for a long time now. I'm 31 and have PDD (Pervasive Developmental Disorder) which is on the Autism Spectrum. I love your family! I have a brother with severe Autism who's 28. I also think Alister is a cool name.

[@josettejoy6003]

I liked what you said about keeping an open mind. As Latter-Day Saints and other Christians living in a world that pushes against our beliefs, it can be hard to know what's real and what's not. I watched a documentary a few months ago called Is Genesis Real? and it talked about using science and Christianity together. What kinds of things do you like to watch about this topic? Also, I can't not talk about this, but Studio C just uploaded a sketch on KZbin with me in the live audience!

[@AutismFamilyChannel]

I like it all, it’s fascinating to me to ponder about the universe.

[@user-yd1mz4on1k]

Was the lady that made that rude comment a follower? I mean how rude!!! Yeah, what does she think you would do? Lock em up in a basement like u said? They are no different than anyone else!!! We are all different in our unique ways but we are all the human race so we’re all the same. I’m sorry for comments u receive from people like that. You have a beautiful family and damn right you take them everywhere!

[@anatolianbites8620]

Hi!

[@au9parsec]

I feel absolutely convinced that some of the drawings on native American rock art like the native American rock art from Utah depict extraterrestrials, since some of the drawings on the rock art looks like depictions of space travelers wearing astronaut helmets or strange looking creatures from UFO lore like the gray aliens 👽. Although mainstream archeologists may dismiss the idea that some of the drawings on rock art are depictions of extra terrestrials, I still feel absolutely convinced that some of the drawings on rock art are depictions of extraterrestrials.

[@AutismFamilyChannel]

That’s a fun interpretation

[@caitlynmarks2680]

You guys should try the arc encounter and the creation museum it is a really fun place it has history of the Bible and really cool visuals to i did get overwhelmed a couple of times for me being on the autism spectrum

[@shem217]

I like to associate history with the present and the future. I wonder if those boys like to do that too.

[@hannatiemstra6548]

I like how you combine science and the Bible, because also think it goes hand in hand. However the Bible said in genesis that God created the world in 6 days and who are we to doubt that? He is almighty

[@AutismFamilyChannel]

Thank you. My only question is our interpretation of “days” and our translation of “days” from the Hebrew word Yom. There is still a lot of debate about it and while I certainly believe God could make the earth in 6 calendar days (or 6 seconds for that matter) are we as fallible humans getting the correct message as intended? Also is God as concerned with the way we measure time or more concerned conveying that we have a 6:1 ratio of work and rest (e.g. Sabbath). Lots of interesting questions 😊

lol I can’t believe some one said that to you wow people these days , it’s almost she’s warning about the kidnapping happening in the USA children missing. Maybe keep watch that’s a weird thing to say ❤.

[@beckypatton8557]

If you are talking about the lady who mentioned them taking the boys out in public, it is more likely someone not realizing how insensitive the comment was or how it sounded. Sometimes people are mean to children with disabilities and their parents when they are out in public. I remember one sad story where someone made some rude comment about how special children shouldn’t be in public. The woman was probably thinking about something like that story when she made her comment. She just didn’t realize how insensitive and hurtful her comment was. Sometimes people don’t think before they speak.

[@shem217]

I bet those boys would like to invite their friends to that place. I’m not sure they have any friends. It’s hard for autistic kids to have friends. I have autism and I had some friends when I was little.
