Explore Fossils!

Age(s) 9 – 15

Just in time for National Fossil Day, kids and teens ages 9 and older are invited to join us to learn about the geologic history of North Dakota when staff from the FM Science Museum visit the library! Participants will examine and touch real fossils from across North Dakota's past, then uncover their own fossils in a hands-on mini fossil excavation.
