- To engage families in creating their own family home based exhibits celebrating family heroes and values in the style of cultural institutions
- To help families recognize how almost everyone already has a home family museum in place with exhibits, sign, objects and object stories
- To demonstrate how technology can and does make the family celebration connection using multimedia and research connections
- To support families in identifying the values, personalities, and key moments in their experiences, this can and should be showcased in a family museum
- To help families see how their members do qualify for honoring and celebration using trade card templates, crests and trees
- To help families see how even a simple internet search of a special date in their life history, can and will, help them put their lives into the context of national events.
