Mike, it wouldn't give you the 3d aspects of a foot print but you could
use thermochromic sheets, and warm or cold foot templates to make tracks
( have the templates stored on a steel plate, with a 40 watt bulb under
it), which then fade. No real reset issues. But the 3d impressions might
be an important part of the exhibit...

Hi all,

Anybody have a great foot print exhibit where kids use models of animal
or bird feet to create prints?  We were planning on using memory foam
which has great resolution but is not very durable at all.  Physical
therapy clay might work but we are concerned about getting stuff stuck
in it. Any ideas would be most welcome.

Thanks,

Mike
