Pioneer Day


On November 2nd, we went to Pioneer Day at Jesse H. Jones Park & Nature Center. There was so much to do! We'll have to go back next year and try some of the things we missed.

Some of the things Alex did:
  • weave on a loom
  • make a rope
  • make a beeswax candle
  • make a paper bonnet
  • dress up as a pioneer girl
  • ride on a hayride
  • write with a quill
We also just got to watch a lot of people pretending to be pioneers and see some of the types of buildings they lived in. It was lots of fun! And, we had even more fun since Nana was in town and got to come with us!
