“Little House” Hands-On Pioneers (August 5 – August 9)

(MORNINGS: for ages 5-7) If you are a fan of the Little House Books or TV show, you’ve probably wondered what it would be like to live long ago. Maybe you’ve even wondered what kids in the future will think was interesting about your life as a kid today. We’ll engage in some of the activities Laura Ingalls Wilder describes: churning butter, making a button lamp, sewing, and pulling taffy! We’re pretty much going to make a mess and something to eat every day. We’ll also create a visual time-capsule to serve as a historical record for the day when this is “long ago.”
