Handle and explore the fascinating world of fossils (bring a magnifying glass if you have one).

Suitable for all ages.

 

How do fossils form, how Old are they & Where are they from?

 

Why do they change & evolve with time?

 

Early “fossilists” and how they /we use them to piece together geological puzzles?
