Subject: [MUSEUM-L] Evolution Program Ideas



Listers-



I come to you ready to beg and borrow your evolution program ideas.  Next February our museum is going to celebrate International Darwin Day with “included in admission” activities.  I figure before I re-invent the wheel on this one I should find out what you all have done to engage the family audience in the topic.  I am open to hearing about anything: crafts, games, presenters, etc.



Thanks in advance for your help ☺
