The study was carried out in a primary school in Las Higueras (Córdoba, Argentina), involving 53 third grade students. For data collection, consult the participating studies and questionnaires were administered to the students. The data analysis shows that students consider themselves interested, eager to learn, ask questions and interact with the museum's objects, aspects that enhance engagement.
