Dear Jennifer

No sorry, here at the Durban Natural Science Museum, South Africa, we don't have an educational programme on fossils - but we are looking for suggestions, much as you are busy doing.

If you receive any good suggestions, would you please be kind enough to direct a copy to us? Otherwise, we'll definitely keep a lookout for newsgroup answers to your question.

We would really appreciate it, thank you!

Yours sincerely


Mario Di Maggio
Education Officer

Subject:        Fossils program

Has anyone on the list conducted an educational program on fossils, intended
for children aged 5-10?  I am a new intern in a Discovery Room and have an
upcoming fossils program for the general public.  I could use information on
neat projects that visitors could make to learn more about the fossilization
process.  I would greatly appreciate any responses off of the list.  I am
not a science person, so every little bit of advice would help a great deal!
Thanks in advance.
