Paleontology: Field to Lab

Piece together a prehistoric mystery as you explore the science of paleontology. Map and excavate a mock dig site, wrap your finds in plaster fossil jackets, and transport them to the classroom. Build hands-on fossil prep skills by reconstructing discoveries and analyzing bones. Stack up your finds against the specimens in the Kamin Hall of Dinosaurs to discover what bone you’ve found, which dinosaur it came from, and how that part of the skeleton functioned.
