That's a good questions Amanda. I'd be interested in hearing what others have to say on that myself.

  Stay at Home Parents as Volunteers

   

  Our museum will soon be opening a more extensive and hands-on children’s discovery area which will inevitably over extend our current volunteer population. We are seeking new and innovative ways to attract more volunteers and one idea was to tap the stay-at-home-mom/dad graphic. We have just begun to study the thought and realize some immediate concerns; for example a Pro being- once the kids go off to school the parents will be able to continue working with us. Con- what happens if mom needs to change a pull-up during her shift? 

  Have any museums tried this before in their volunteer program, namely for their children’s discovery areas?

   

  Thanks for any feed back.
