Dear Walter:

Discovery Creek Children's Museum in Washington, DC has a wonderful
interactive water exhibit up right now. They have a water cycle circling the
outside of the room so that children can follow the water from rain to pond to
stream to bay to ocean. There are live animals in each section illustrating
the different kinds of life each system supports. Children can take water
samples and test for D.O. Their web site is www.discoverycreek.org.

Good luck,
Jessica Ruskin
