Engaging the public with Earth Science and palaeontology is important to ignite a discovery for environments long gone. In this post, I share behind-the-scenes insights of how I engage children in science communication and why engagement with science matters.
Over the years, I have had the privilege of inspiring the next generation of scientists through dynamic palaeontology outreach. From hands-on fossil workshops to national magazine features, my mission has always been clear: make Earth Science accessible, exciting, and unforgettable for young learners.

In my latest Patreon feature, I dive into this journey of engaging young minds with the wonders of palaeontology.
I feature Dinosaur Action Magazine, the UK’s leading dinosaur publication for children and showcase a behind-the-scenes look at the collaborative process with Signature Publishing, making science communication both fun and impactful. I also examine the importance of Earth Science and why it is important to engage the next generation of scientists with palaeontology.
