Join us as we have a good old time learning games that were played by Native American and pioneer children long ago. As the games are shared, we will discuss the roles children had within their family, what their daily life might have been like, and how it compares to the way children live today.
Please note that this program is designed for homeschooled children ages 5 to 11. Pre-registration is required and can be made by calling the Washington County Department of Parks and Recreation office at 724-228-6867. There is no fee for this program.
