I had a beginning program and called it "Does your grandfather really grow
on a tree?"  I borrowed it from another library.  It was very successful. 
I had scouts, students earning extra credit and some adults just getting
started on their family tree.  I have held it as a childrens and an adult
program.  It works at all levels.
