"Little Darwin Club" field trip activities
The Chinese Paleozoological Museum also provides young people with places and opportunities to “play science”. We founded the "Little Darwin Club" to organize primary and secondary school students who are interested in earth science and paleontology to participate in geological and paleontological scientific expeditions and scientific research activities in their spare time and holidays (their parents can participate in the activities together). The "Little Darwin Club" will allow young people to experience the scientific spirit, understand the scientific process, master scientific methods, and increase scientific knowledge in the mysterious and interesting process of exploring ancient times and origins while visiting the magnificent mountains and rivers of the motherland; at the same time, enhance their survival ability , get the cultivation of temperament and sublimation of personality.
