Its nice to see folks engaging youngsters in outreach activities. Even though I work for a wildlife research org, I participate in outreach activities 3x a year or so. One of my favorite is the Starkville Science Club; a science based outreach program for 5th and 6th graders. I always do bird necropsies with them. Their favorite part is to cut open the stomach to see what they eat!
Maybe it's been posted on WG before, but have any of you read "Last CHild in the Woods" by Richard Louv?
