Watch: York children guess what museum objects are – and it’s as cute as you can imagine

A child’s imagination is a wonderful thing – and the Yorkshire Museum has been putting it to the test!

The museum team visited Lord Deramore’s Primary School in York to chat to the students about some of the weird and wonderful objects in their collections.

They then asked the children to use their imaginations to try and guess what the object might be.

Here’s what they came up with – warning for cuteness overload…

Using their amazing imaginations, the students made some brilliant guesses – from lamp posts to sharks to a dinosaur egg!

One student in particular showcased some very impressive knowledge.

The video has been circulating around social media, and has proved to be very popular.

And there will be more! The Yorkshire Museum plans to turn this into a series, with more videos coming soon.

I think the future of archaeology is looking very bright, don’t you?
