If you’re looking for ways to make museum trips more exciting for your kids, give this activity a try.

First, plan your scavenger hunt by visiting the museum’s Web site before you go or by stopping by the information desk once you arrive and picking up any maps and brochures about the exhibition. Look over the materials together and devise a list of five to ten very specific things to hunt for. In a natural-history museum, these could include the T-rex skull, the Atlantic puffin, the trilobite diorama, gypsum needles, and the Audubon print of a great egret; in an art museum, the list could include a painting of a vase of flowers and a pair of gloves on a table, a sculpture of a child with a bird, a mask from the Aleutian Eskimos, a small gold Mayan figure, a round fan, or “uchiwa,” from Japan, and a sculpture of a ballerina with a real net skirt.
