I fully agree with Mary Graham's standpoint, and have defended and built
more natural, natural-history type, specimen-oriented museum displays. This
goes generally against the grain, because so much of the establishment (and
the public) today expects to see interactive science-museum type exhibits
in natural history museums. Please check some pictures of the Shell
Museum's Children's Learning Lab (kids' room) at the web site below.
 
Best to all,
 
Jose
