This goes back a few decades to my days as a young docent at the University of Miami's Lowe Art Museum. One of the docents, a little older than me, had three toddlers and actually "guided" using a stroller. Her tour was magnificent. Taking children into a museum has its rewards years later -- watching my daughter "taking" us through museums in Edinburgh, and my son mesmerized at the Santa Barbara Museum of Art. We look forward to visiting the Getty again over a Christmas sojourn.

Here's hoping the contestants don't break anything priceless. They're prone to running amok like that on that show. . .

And Silly Rabbit, you can't take L.A. out of the Getty, even if you take it out of L.A. :)
