Exploring Treasure Storehouses of the World By Linda Davis-Kyle, MA
The wonderful learning treasure storehouses of the world are certain to enchant your youngsters, foster their development as they grow and change, and enhance their love of learning as they develop into young adults. Young learners will be over the moon in many of the grand repositories—the wonderful museums and art galleries of the world—where they actually are invited to examine artefacts, touch art, and feel sculptures treated to withstand wear and tear. Abundant hands-on activities and a host of physical exercises create indelible understanding with a favourable result that echoes the Chinese proverb, “Tell me, and I’ll forget. Show me, and I may remember. Involve me, and I’ll understand.” Or, similarly, as Mark Twain’s words amusingly suggest, “If you hold a cat by the tail, you learn things you cannot learn any other way.”
