We did a focus group with 14-16 yr olds in conjunction with a site interpretation program we are planning. I would say that the principal response that most kids had was that they needed to participate actively. We are planning a small and flexible theater program using kids as actors to do small-scale plays about various themes here at the Garden. I haven't tried it, but I've talked to those who have, and they've had pretty substantial success with both the actor/participants and their audiences (who like to see peers do their thing.)
