Archaeology Now family events travel to neighborhoods around Houston. Hands-on activities help children learn more about the past, the many ways we are all connected, and how archaeologists work.

Science and cultural activities make learning fun!

In the fall of 2026, join us at an “Ancient Encounter” at KBR Kids Day to discover the story of the Karankawa, the Indigenous people who lived on the banks of the bayous before Houston became a city.

Then, in the spring of 2027, step into the ultimate playtime time machine at Ancient Games! Race, puzzle, and play your way through 5,000 years of fun with giant-sized boards, ancient toys, and hands-on family challenges from every corner of the globe.
