Recently my daughter and me had a chance to attend one of Dr. Kranz's field trips. These trips are excellent, a great learning experience and most of all fun for the whole family.
My daughter was not quite three at the time of the trip. She enjoyed every minute of the trip.
If you have pictures of a trip with Dr. Kranz that you would like to share, please notify us so we can add them to this page.
Dr. Kranz explains what to look for. Most fossils which you collect will be yours to keep. We suggest you donate scientifically important specimens to museums. |
