Some may have missed the tiny displays of Dr. Carver's artwork, and we had to make our own way into the historical portion of the museum at the end of our stay on the farm, but all in all, our visit to the old farmstead was worth the time we spent there.
The Discover Center at the George Washington Carver National Monument in Diamond, Missouri, is chock full of interactive displays for kids to enjoy. I was thrilled to see that not only were they exploring and but they were not merely pushing buttons. They read displays and followed directions. They played creatively with vegetables, microphones, and an entire 19th Century school room. Their interest in mammals, insects, and reptiles of our area was piqued through the use of the museum's interactive exhibits. There was also a "back porch" area where people could step outside and view the farm through some mounted binoculars.
