Dig, explore, celebrate! Hands-on play,

Hello There!

Hi, I’m Michal Stern — founder of Diggin’ Up Fun. With a B.A. and M.A. in Archaeology from Tel Aviv University and over eight years at the Israel Antiquities Authority, I’ve always been passionate about uncovering the past. My years as a preschool teacher and my role as a mom of two inspired me to combine history and hands-on play. Together with my daughter Danielle, I create fun, interactive experiences that bring archaeology to life for young children, sparking curiosity and a love of learning.

Parent Testimonials

"DigginUpFun was a huge hit at my 7 year old daughter’s bday party!!

The girls LOVED digging for necklace charms in heart shaped brick! Cannot recommend highly enough! Michal is hands on and energetic, bringing joy through this sensory, exploratory activity!"
