This is exactly the kind of thing that gets our kids excited. They did it once with just a bunch of gathered toys they collected and then sorted. Of course, a little structure will make this a more well-rounded event worthy of the Smithsonian. :) I love this idea too. This is exactly the kind of thing that gets our kids excited.

Yes, don't be intimidated! I've seen kids set up a museum set up on a long bench before. They had so much fun calling us over and telling us about all their treasures.

I love this piece b/c it gives the parent a chance to sort of 'direct' the play, but not control. I *also* love this post because it assumes (rightly, in my book!) that the kids are able to process & utilize these pointers on their level. This is an age appropriate activity for everyone! (Oh yeah, and our previous efforts only involved the kitchen table - not much more than that. So no one get intimidated!!)
