Learning Through Objects: Museums and Young Children
October 27 and 28, 2005
The Smithsonian Early Enrichment Center is offering our innovative training
program for museum professionals and early childhood educators interested in
using objects and art works to teach young children.
This two- day program will be offered at the Smithsonian Institution.
Participants will learn how a host of museum objects - including paintings,
sculptures, an African headrest, and an old-time chestnut roaster -can help
children, as young as two or three, understand their world.
The program, featuring hands-on exercises with museum objects, lectures,
discussions, and gallery experiences, is designed to help museum educators
forge more creative encounters with young museum go-ers, and to introduce
early childhood educators to the magic of museums.
Cost: $275 Early Registration
(before Oct. 1)
$300 after Oct.1
