*****************************************************************************
Asking for evaluation can produce a range of reactions, particularly amongst
children. It is hard to pose the question without biasing the answer.
With younger children we have gathered some very useful by looking closely
at the pictures children have drawn of our exhibits as a curriculum
enrichment activity.
In some cases it was amazing the depth of detail that had been absorbed
without it being put into words.
Good Luck!
