Kansas used to be underwater…multiple times!  One way we know this is by observing the fossils we find in the rocks.  You might be surprised at just how many fossils you can find just by taking a walk on a local trail!  In fact, that is exactly what we will do in the JAM and see what we find.  You will also be given a fossil page with pictures, which you can use to help you with identification.

Tickets go on sale 9:00 am 8/24/24

PLEASE NOTE:

  • We require a 24 hour cancellation notice for Little Explorers Club and JAM Sessions reservations via emailing info@visitthemap.org. Please include the name on the reservation, number of students, date and time of the class.

  • Please help create an outstanding learning environment by limiting disruptions in the classroom! 

  • Parents are, of course, always welcome to remain in class but should a parent choose to step out, we have provided a seating area just outside the classrooms. Parents and siblings are also welcome to explore our Discovery Room or the rest of the Museum until the class concludes.
