Wakanheza: Supporting Parents in Public

2007replicationgroup

MetLife Foundation and Association of Children's Museums established the Replication Award, a $10,000 restricted grant for former Promising Practice Award recipients to create an online toolkit and InterActivity training session so that other children's museums may learn how to create a similar, museum-tested, award-winning program in their own communities.

Promising Practice: Defuse stressful child/parent interactions in public places.

Minnesota Children's Museum's Replication Toolkit, Wakanheza: Supporting Parents in Public, includes information on museum staff training based on the Wakanheza principle, an implementation guide, facilitator’s guide, Power Point presentation and project worksheets to train others.
