Today is International Museum Day!
Museums are incredibly powerful in extending a child's learning. They are surrounded by objects that can help them connect knowledge they've gained in the classroom to their every day life. Students can read about what they are seeing and spend time thinking about history, science, innovation, and more!
If you aren't able to GO to a museum today, here are some other options!
Your child guides an alien around the MoMA. Clicking on different pieces of art {paintings, sculptures, etc.} and learning about the artists and creating their own similar pieces.
See whale bones, sarcophagi, and more up close!
This one may take more patience as you get around the museum {we'd suggest for 12+}.
A different type of museum and still educational and fun.
Stories and artifacts that your children may not have seen before to teach them about this part of U.S. history.
Do you know of any other virtual museums? Comment with a link below!
