I am putting together, for the first time, an environment that represents Southern Indiana during the Mississippian Time period for children to understand the natural environment. In conjunction, create a fossil hunt area to find the plants and animals that would have existed in this time period.
Specifically, I would like to know more about the use of sand or similar material for visitors to "dig" into to find fossils. I do not prefer to use sand due to the possible mess it could make, is there any other recommendations?
I am in the very beginning stages of this project and if anyone has any advice related to what to do and what to avoid would be very helpful.
Looking forward to your responses!
