ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.

Well, all this prompts me to ask about a small 6' by 3' table that I
built to accommodate some water exhibits. I found that the water we had
in the museum was such a low quality that it became difficult to
maintain the idea of the table, which was mostly oriented towards
physics. We get a lot of small kids, so maybe some use of sand and water
could be effective. Any ideas for such a small table. There is no way to
get water to the table other than bring it there in a bucket.
