The Mayborn Museum at Baylor University clearly believes in interaction. Their interactive exhibits are doubtlessly the starting points for many young imaginations to learn about cultures that have made significant contributions to the world's history. One example is the Lost Egypt Ancient Secrets Modern Science exhibit that allows kids to step back in time and live like an Egyptian. It's exhibits like this as well as a highly knowledgeable staff and state-of-the-art facility that make the Mayborn Museum a consistent and compelling learning experience for the whole family.
