Egyptian Dig (Ages 6-11)

This program is currently unavailable. Click here to view all of our current programs.


Children discover the amazing science of Archaeology as they uncover ancient artifacts.  In doing this, we will learn about Egyptian life.  We will excavate with tools like a real archaeologist uses.  We will find the following artifacts as we excavate a scarab (what’s that?), hieroglyphic tablet, ankh symbol and a jackal.  You will learn about this and even take home a booklet.  The artifacts are yours to keep.  We will wet the sand that we dig into and create one of two sand sculptures for display.  You can make a pyramid as well as a sphinx.  Let’s go back in time with a hands on archaeological experience!
