           INQ:  A first-rate undergraduate student  here is applying
           for a research grant designed for undergrads.  She wants to
           study children's museums in Europe and the U.S. I will
           mentor her, and while I know something about museums from
           their connection with world's fairs, I know nothing about
           children's museums.  Any help in locating relevant works
           about the museums or suggestions for nifty topics to search
           out would be appreciated.  My student is going to Europe
           this summer, so sources there could be useful too.  We have
           access to the Greenwood Press reference book on children's
           museum, zoos, and discovery centers.

           Thanks!!
