Let's Have Our Own Archaeological Dig in Bloomington, MN

What could be for fun than participating in your own Archaeology Dig? Have an archaeology in your backyard to make learning come alive! I can't think of a better way to learn about archaeology than to do what archaeologists do. So much of what we know about Ancient Times comes from hard-working archaeologists laboring in the hot sun to unearth treasured artifacts that reveal one more thing about ancient times. Parents and/or teachers can create a dig site with several layers like a Tell. Children and teens mark off a grid before they dig. Carefully, artifacts are unearthed and sent to the lab for examination. Does that sound fun? A little overwhelming? Don't worry. Meredith will take you step-by-step in planning and holding your own archaeological dig. Get ready to make some happy memories. Explore Archaeology the Fun Way:
