Museums Want Visitors to Use Their Hands

For many years, museums had one important rule: do not touch anything. Visitors could only look at paintings, sculptures, and old objects from far away.
Today, some museums are changing this rule. They now let visitors touch some special objects. Museum teachers think that touching things helps people learn better. When you touch something, you remember it more easily. This is very helpful for children and new visitors.
Some museums also help people who cannot see well. They make copies of famous sculptures using special machines. Visitors who are blind can touch these copies and learn about art and history. This makes museums better for everyone.
