Finally, I know I'm not alone! At least regarding my soapbox about history museums not being kid-friendly. . .
A collection of essays from educators, exhibit designers and the like who are thinking about kids when they think about exhibits. Some great data on why we should be thinking about kids at history museums (and that there's a lot more that little ones understand than we give credit). A book that I can share with co-workers as we remake the museum.

Like all essay collections, some essays are better than others. But I am so, so, so glad that this book exists. I've already put it to use and will be referring to it often.

(And how nerdy is it of me to be super excited that quite a few of the authors will be at a Texas conference this fall? Sigh. I love my job.)
