<p><strong><span style="font-size:20px;">The Natural History Museum is ready to open! With an incredible Astronomy exhibit and many ancient artifacts, what&rsquo;s not to love?</span></strong></p>

<p><strong><span style="font-size:20px;">However, the museum is looking for more things to exhibit. So, if you could build the perfect exhibition to go into The Natural History Museum, what would that look like?</span></strong></p>
