Greetings to the list,

I am participating in an upcoming community outreach
fair which will showcase educational opportunities for
kids in our area.  I will be representing the school
tour program for Sacramento's Old City Cemetery (ca
1849) which I manage.  (Believe me, the irony of doing
"living history" in a cemetery is NOT lost on me!)

I am trying to devise something that kids can take
with them from our table to go with the tour brochure.
 A coloring sheet came to mind, with either  sketches
and captions of gravestone symbols (fairly neutral,
not-to-religious ones) or of noteworthy gravestones in
our cemetery (Mark Hopkins, or John Sutter, Jr., for
example).

My questions are these:  Would the general public find
these too morbid for children?  And, does anyone have
any other ideas?

Thanks in advance,
Teri Pope
Educational Tours Coordinator
