Jurassic Magic is a dynamic educational opportunity designed to be fun for children while developing their understanding, encouraging their imagination, and awakening a lifetime of fascination with the natural world around them.

Amye Scharlau combines her unique experience as a professional magician and scientific illustrator into an educational program that entertains as it inspires.  Enchanting magical effects are creatively used throughout the show to demonstrate various scientific principles.  Watch a dinosaur grow a long neck in front of your eyes; see snow flutter as climates change right on stage; and marvel as ancient insects take to the sky.  Many of you will be able to assist Amye as junior paleontologists during this event.  All of the participants will be able to tour Amye's amazing and ever expanding traveling museum of natural history, which includes genuine woolly mammoth hair, fossilized dinosaur skin, and a five foot tall Tyrannosaurus Rex femur!  An extra highlight, arranged upon request, is a dinosaur dig pit.  A special surface is laid out with sand, rocks, and real dinosaur bones.  Children are led through an imaginary dinosaur field day; each of them will collect and identify a genuine fossil, which they will be allowed to KEEP, along with a special fact card describing it, as a reminder of the wonders of the natural world and a truly remarkable program.
