Geopark at home
To keep young scientists busy while they are learning at home, we have a round up of our Geopark at Home activities, with lots of fun and interesting things to make and do.
All our Geopark at Home activities are based on earth science and geology, and help you to dig a little bit deeper under the surface of the North Pennines. They all use materials that you may be able to find at home, so why not choose one and see what you discover? Share your finished projects on social media using #geoparkathome or email some pictures to Naomi, our Geology Projects Officer.
