We have Darwin Day at our school as well. Several years ago I did a presentation on Darwin's baby biography of his son "Doddy". I read excerpts and showed students photographs of the family. It led to interesting discussions of the potential for bias when using something like this for scientific observations. The diary is also filled with wonderful leaps - from observing a young child with a pickle stained pinafore to indicating that the child was obviously practicing "carefully planned deceit" :). I also used this to lead into a discussion of the roots of child development research. Cynthia
