The Little Archaeologist Hall at Sharjah Archaeology Museum is  considered the first interactive archaeology hall in the UAE, it provides children 5 to 12 years of age with the opportunity to learn about Sharjah’s artefacts interactively through a collection of models, technologies, and science activities that develop children’s senses and spark their imagination to grasp the important findings of archaeologists on the nature of human life in the region, starting from the Stone Age until the first centuries AD.

The hall’s activities shed light on the relationship of ancient Sharjah people with animals, both domesticated and wild, and their use of natural resources in the manufacture of tools such as weapons, hunting tools, and even money. It also highlights the use of mud bricks in building homes and its relation to sustainability. The activities also touch on the beginnings of art in ancient Sharjah, embodied through the drawing on rocks, considered one of the first precursors to human writing.
