Reviews the results of an in-depth investigation of research on learning in children's museum settings. Focuses on how young children aged 4 and 5 engage with exhibits and how this might lead to learning. The investigation yielded not-very-surprising findings and some coding categories that may be useful to museum researchers and designers. (PVD)
