2008 Winter Vacation Camp - Strawbery Banke Museum offers a fun way for children ages 8 to10 to avoid the winter doldrums this year.  During winter school vacation week in New Hampshire, Maine, and Massachusetts, the Museum is offering “Wintertimes Past,” a daily program filled with a variety of cooking activities, indoor and outdoor games, stories, and arts and crafts.  Every activity is designed to offer an historical perspective on childhood activities in earlier times. Children will learn how to pull taffy, cook a meal over an open hearth, dip a candle, forecast the weather without TV, and make hot chocolate from scratch. A mix of indoor and outdoor activities will keep children busy and learning while having fun.
