  Museums as agents of social inclusion, exploring social impact through children's photo diaries
Anna Woodham (University of Leicester)

These photographs were taken by four 6 year olds on a visit to an historic property. The children were asked to use the cameras as a diary of their visit, to capture images that caused an emotional response. The photographs are both fascinating and difficult to interpret, images which reflect the priorities and identities of young children, capturing a moment of exploration and reaction to their surroundings.
