Discovering Archaeology for Kids

Follow me on:

I was poking around updating the Archaeology Fieldwork for 2009 when I ran across an interesting project from the University of Calgary. They're offering in-school programs, where the archaeologist comes to the classroom (K-6) and teaches archaeology in half-day increments. Take a look:

Added: I've since discovered other similar programs, including one sent to me via Twitter, so I've put together a page of Archaeology Projects for Kids, including excavations and classroom activities. Please let me know if you know of any others.
