Facebook Field Trips – Elgin Public Museum
Elgin Public Museum of Natural History & Anthropology is closed during the Covid-19 shelter-in-place, but our Facebook page is always open! Check daily, Monday-Friday, as we present mini-lessons in a wide variety of natural history and anthropology topics, from dinosaur poop to Native American culture.
Bring The Zoo To You – Brookfield Zoo
For today’s #BringingTheZooToYou chat we’re headed to Tropic World: South America. Here we’ll get a chance to see Raisin Sloth! Leave a question in the comments below and we’ll try to answer it during the chat.
Museum of Science and Industry
Your curiosity of science doesn’t stop when you leave MSI! The museum is providing hands-on science experiments for kids to try at home. Make your own tornado, create some cool slime and so much more.

We will be thinking of (at home) things to do during this period of time. We hope it ends up being just a long snow day for all of us.
