Around here we supply sources and methods for School mideaval fairs, as well
as doing demos for said Schools. I suppose on the face of it this isn't much,
but the fact is, we open a few of the kids universes to include imagination
and actual research. Not always just about the Middle Ages either... Such
incidents as a group of Cub Scouts explaining to Baron Corwyn what Cool Aid
was and how ice was common in summer there, or why I couldn't carry a bottle
of what they used for lighting back to my home, even tho it was obviously a
superior fuel.

In other words, using imagination we ignite theirs to consider things on a
basic level, not to simply assume. Here is the begining of learning.

That's one example anyway.
