>Maine Discovery Museum is Maine's largest children's museum, and our target
>audience is childen from birth to age 12 and their accompanying adults.
>We're beginning to discuss possible collaborations with a genetics research
>lab in our area, and I've been following recent postings about genetics
>exhibits with some interest. Does anyone know of an exhibit/area in a
>science or children's museum, other than an actual classroom or lab, that
>gives visitors a role-playing/hands-on experience of working in a science
>lab?

>Ideally, this would be a room or area that could be used by children without
>staff facilitation, though the space and activities could be "opened up" and
>augmented when staff or volunteers were available and there could be access
>to running water.
