Can artefacts tell stories? 

The Artefact Chat box contains items representative of their time, and relate to life in the past in Australia. Unlike the collections at ACT Historic Places museums, these objects can be handled by your class. 

There are 4 boxes available with different themes: 

1) Travelling, School and Cooking 

2) Shopping and Washing

3) Bath time and Toys 

4) Toys and Holidays
